Edwin McCain piosenki

Perfumed and smoky She swears that she knows me She's falling down drunk again I say she's mistaken She's visibly shaken Emotions all drowned in gin She said I used to be beautiful But now it's all gone I let my dreams slip away from me That's where it went wr...

When footsteps from that Sunday march faded out into the dark The melody blows in to ease the pain Two thousand years and we're still here fighting over the same old fear The muddy steps of hate can't stand this rain I'll stand up on this stage as if it was my...

I'm holding my last breath It's burning in my lungs Clenching up my eyes Bloody up my tongue For the words that might escape Are ringing in my ears Grinds me to a pulp Grind me in the gears My frozen spirit aches I slip another day Start to lose my grip Find a...

After all the corridors are darkened When the royal crown is off your head To your chambers I will creep not a word we will speak Just love me while the fire light dances 'round the bed Well there is danger in this passion Because the king can never never know...

And the hearts fall in the right places And the hearts fall in the right places Pin feathers, dusty old wings Living all my crazy never-land dreams And I feel her trying when were apart And I feel like dying God dont let me break her heart God dont let me br...

Midnight in the Holy City playground for restless souls Graveyards for the sons of Fort Sumter* And the ghostly daughters Wait for their boys to come home Moonlight in the Holy City So thick it warms the air Burned my heart on a sweet southern flame Like a hug...

The air that you breathe it must be poison And you're dressed up in your best disguise I don't want to hear what you have to say It's there in your eyes when you look away These beautiful words are turning into lies Chorus: How can you say that to me The lig...

I'm A hack driver in New York City I've got seven kids on the lower east side I'm not a strong man, I'm not very pretty But in rush hour hell you should see me drive I'm a dressmaker in Louisiana Stick my finger ain't that a shame People come to haggle and paw...

Lying here with you Listening to the rain Smiling just to see the smile upon your face These are the moments I thank God that I'm alive These are the moments, I'll remember all my life I found all I've waited for And I could not ask for more Looking in your ey...

How did I wake up each day Before that moment I saw your face Where was I before your touch No where is where I was, without you Without you in it My life was just a lie Before you I don't know how I got by Before I met you Before I held you in the night I don...

The strands in your eyes that color them wonderful Stop me and steal my breath And emeralds from mountains thrust towards the sky Never revealing their depth And tell me that we belong together Dress it up with the trappings of love I'll be captivated,...

I remember when the time I met you Living with your people down in New Orleans Mad at your mama cause she'd never let you Ride in our nasty limousine Later on the levee with the moon up above I lost my heart and confessed my love Oh Lucy, God have mercy I've g...

I've seen a love that rolls like thunder Ive seen a love that falls like rain That kind of love it makes me wonder Why my love causes me so much pain I see my ring as it spins on the table A perfect circle on the dusty wood Tells of a life, the love and the la...

Looking back on younger days the view stretched on for miles We charged into our futures with laughter and smiles As we traveled blindly the road became so thick No chance to change direction and we've laughed until we're sick Now I keep company with wicked ev...

I've been through the valley but I feared no man Saw the beach and the footprints alone in the sand When times seem hopeless, the night too dark to see Alone footprints on the road behind were the times when You carried me Jesus, He loves me This I know...

The night before your wedding, I dreamed what i would say, I'd beg you for forgiveness, For all the mess i've made. I dreamed that you were gracious, I dreamed you wished me well, I dreamed that you were vicious, You damned me straihgt to hell. Chorus But, oh,...

Mama, how do I write the words to you You were the only one who loved me true But theres a woman that we dont even know She gave me life, then you gave me a home I love you, Mama But I want to tell her too Is that her little boy still loves you I close my eyes...

The rip of thunder it splits the day It's jagged proof for the strength of chaos There's a strange music in the rumble It's like the anger and love's loss So you ask me to seek shelter And with you I know it's safe and warm But my dreams are in the torrent And...

Wake up Maggie I think I've got something to say to you. It's late September and I really should be back at school. I know I keep you amused but I feel I'm being used. Oh Maggie I couldn't have tried any more. You led me away from home just to save you from be...

She walked in, I tipped my hat She said, "Boy don't you look at me like that" And I said, "No, you know I got no game" "Oh, but you can love me just the same" She said "Boy, my mama told me all about boys like you" "You talk so sweet then you leave me blue"...
