Gretchen Peters piosenki

Under Kilimanjaro she guards her young And she speaks to the darkness in the mother tongue She waits and she watches all night long She calls to her lover and she sings this song I will be there for you whatever comes I am as constant as the beat of drums My...

I got a fine house, I got a deep well I’m a woman who knows how to keep to herself when your need is strong and the hour is late baby you got the key to my garden gate honeysuckle clings to the old stone wall just like Eden before the fall from dust we come a...

[Verse 1] I knew a girl who said that beauty kills Dulled the pain with wine and pills Took that slow ride down the hill to nowhere She said Pompeii crumbled and Athens fell Heathens stormed the citadel A girl like me ain’t got a chance in hell against ‘em [C...

I went walking one night on Tupelo street All the way to the county line Heard a sidewalk sermon and a blind man preach And written on a cardboard sign Revival, revival, this lamb has gone astray Revival, revival, gonna wash your sins away Now I have done ev...

Saint Francis walking on the water All his lambs have gone to slaughter All the creatures who receive his grace You can see them all In his haggard face Saint Francis begging at your doorway You want to let him in but what will the neighbors say You know you...

Silent night, holy night All is calm, all is bright Round yon virgin mother and child Holy infant so tender and mild Sleep in heavenly peace Sleep in heavenly peace Silent night, holy night Shepherds quake at the sight Glories stream from heaven afar Heavenly...

The lamp is burnin' low upon my table top The snow is softly falling The air is still within the silence of my room I hear your voice softly calling If I could only have you near To breathe a sigh or two I would be happy just to hold the hands I love On this w...

I got sand between my toes and beach tar on my feet And my air conditioner don't work in this late August heat I got a top forty radio song stuck in my head Can't shake it loose can't get myself out of bed And I'm tired of the TV news think I'll read a book in...

You fell out of the sky when you were 21 Your bomber took a bullet from a German gun Did you think about your wife, your brief And tender life, did you pray to anyone? How does it feel when you're falling? Can you hear sweet angels calling? Is it empty up in...

[Verse 1] Damn this lump in my throat Damn this hole in my coat Damn this rain that just won’t quit Damn the sorry waste of it Damn the truth, n damn these lies Damn that look behind your eyes Damn this day, damn this night Goddamn this losing fight [Chorus]...

The house on Auburn Street is burning to the ground Fire trucks on the lawn and a crowd is gathered round An apparition in a small suburban town The house on Auburn Street is burning to the ground Birthdays and barbecues – come on you sleepy head He watched t...

Open up your suitcase and show me what you got I don't need a new religion, I don't need no pans or pots But your little ritual might entertain me Yeah, the lady of the house is in and might be so inclined If you're selling something sacred I might be ready t...

I threw a rose to the matador, not sure who I was cheering for My aim was true, my heart was full, I loved the fighter and the bull I loved like only a woman can, a very complicated man I bound his wounds, I heard his cries, I gave him truth, I told him lies...

Couple of guys sittin' around Drinkin' down at the Starlight Bar One of 'em says, "You know I been thinkin'" Other one says, "That won't get you too far" He says, "This is your life and welcome to it It's just workin' and drinkin' and dreams Ad on the TV says...

It's something like grace, the way you look at me Kinda like you see me in my finest hour It's something like church, the way it's supposed to be When I get down on my knees and feel the power It's kinda like a wildfire burnin' up the mountainside It's kinda...

There's a silence on the front lines You can cut it with a knife You can stay and take your chances Or you can run to save your life And one side is retreating And the other's runnin' scared And the drums of war are beating Even though it's undeclared And bo...

The altar boys are sneaking cigarettes The friends and neighbors offering their regrets The station wagon's in the pouring rain And all that water goin' down the drain A white lace dress for when I turn thirteen And a bright red stain that wouldn't quite come...

Children playin', night is fallin' Stars are winkin' in the sky Supper's cookin', mama's callin' But they're not ready to say goodbye While you've been sleepin', I've been walkin' I've been restless but I swear I don't know why I'm not cryin', it's just raini...
