John Craigie - Dog Eyed Girl текст песни

Исполнитель: John Craigie

альбом: October Is the Kindest Month


To the girl with the dog eyes,
You're the only one who knows that's a nice thing to say
I got woken up at sunrise,
To your ukulele ringing through my brains
Some song about a Brooklyn moon
And a poor boy exhaling into you
And your was that old familiar phrase
Singing the road giveth and the road taketh away
To my toothless angel
You're the only one who'll smile at that line
I found a word for the color
Of your nameless and perfect eyes
But I lost it in a drunken haze
I screamed it out into the North Country rain
And when it echoed back all it did say
Was the road giveth and the road taketh away
I won't sleep when I'm dead,
When I'm dead they'll probably be other stuff to do
I don't need to sleep I don't need to sing this to them
I just need to sing this to you
To the girl with the dog eyes,
And whatever else it was that brought me here
I hope you wake up next sunrise
With this song at the edge of your ears
And all the blue skies that warm your blood
Let you realize how lucky I was
I had the perfect farewell but it somehow slipped away
Singing, the road giveth and the road taketh away
