Gretchen Peters piosenki

Will I see you tonight with the moon in your hair? Your sad little smile, your poetic despair Will we meet on the freeway under the sky For a cool goodbye? There's a crack in my voice, there's a crack in my heart The foundation is crumbling, I'm falling apart...

I drive a cab in Brooklyn, I like my job okay Nobody breathin' down my neck, I just drive around all day I meet all kinds of people, I've got the gift of gab Been everything from bums to kings in the back seat of my cab And I got a roof over my head I got thr...

[Verse 1] I built this house with my bare hands On the shores of Louisian Took my sweet cher Jolie-Ann For my own – my very own Now every man has got his pride I tried to shelter and provide But I can’t stop this poison tide Rollin’ in – rollin’ in [Chorus] N...

[Verse 1] The blackbirds came at dusk and they roosted in the cane Raised such a ruckus that it shook my windowpane And I’m covered up in dirt and I stink of kerosene And no matter what I do I can’t get clean Last thing I remember was your footsteps in the hal...

Are you lonely? Are you crying? Are those teardrops in your eyes? Is it more blues? Is it bad news? Is it a curse or a blessing in disguise? Did you leave him? Do you love him? Have you said your last goodbyes? Is it over? Are you sorry? Could it be a blessin...

Carmelita was a street angel but she kept her halo hid Never learned to read or write so well, she was just a farmer's kid She took communion at the age of twelve, she wore a cross of wood She heard the clanging of the mission bell And she vowed that she'd be...

This is how it is, no dramatic scenes You read your morning paper, I read my magazine Happy weatherman says, we need the rain But I don't know what he's thinking It's been coming down for days And this brew is just too bitter Too strong for me to drink Gonna...

The moon had a fight with the parking lot light And slunk off to hide in the clouds Now it’s broken bottles, gravel and glass Keepin’ you company now In the heat of the moment he cried out your name But the moment it didn’t last long Ten minutes later he’s dr...

Angels we have heard on high Singing sweetly through the night And the mountains in reply Echoing their brave delight Shepherds, why this jubilee? Why these songs of happy cheer? What great brightness did you see? What glad tiding did you hear? Come to Bethleh...

I can't fight your dragons anymore They no longer live behind your closet door My magic's lost its power to ease your mind But if I could, I'd slay them child of mine What I wouldn't give for just one day When holding you was all it took to wipe those tears a...

I work the high wire in the center ring Defyin' gravity, that's my thing Guess I never wanted no regular life I couldn't stand to be nobody's wife Some people tell me that I'm livin' their dream But things in the circus ain't what they seem Believe me, darlin...

Lullay, Thou little tiny Child Bye, bye, lully, lullay Lullay, Thou little tiny Child Bye, bye, lully, lullay O sisters, too, how may we do For to preserve this day; This poor Youngling for whom we sing Bye, bye, lully, lullay Herod the King, in his raging Cha...

i got no use for harps and wings i got no time for foolish things there is no heaven, there is no hell there’s only you, my dark angel your bleeding heart, your pilgrim soul your wounded eyes, that take their toll your ragged voice like a broken bell against...

You blow in harder than a hurricane I'm always standing in the pouring rain Sometimes it's all that I can do To keep from drowning in you You come on softer than a summer wind Love me 'til I'm weak and then you're gone again And I ain't got no anchor to hold...

We'll take the red eye flight and leave Nashville way behind I got a feeling everything's gonna work out fine Three thousand miles from Tennessee In between the devil and the deep blue sea Take the redeye flight and leave Nashville way behind Got my hand on t...

Wasn’t a cloud in the sky when the news arrived Just another bluebird day Just a voice on the phone saying I’m sorry Everything falls away So I went down to the sea to look for you Found the moon and the Milky Way Watched the tide take back what it gave to me...

I've got five minutes to sneak a cigarette Five minutes to myself Back behind the screen door of Andy's luncheonette And I ain't got time to worry 'bout my health My boss Andy says I smoke myself to death Andy he reminds me some of you Back when you were Romeo...

It's Friday night down in Germantown You're ridin' shotgun wearin' black Just another Friday night in Germantown But something tells me we ain't goin' back Mary's glowin' by the dashboard light Giving benediction to the lost Something's stirring in the black,...

Haven’t done as well as I thought I would I’m not dead but I’m damaged goods And it’s gettin’ late I’m a rusty hinge, a squeaky wheel At the bad end of a shaky deal Cursed by the hand of fate And ooooooh – I’m a very lucky girl Yeah ooooooh – hello crue...
