Half Seas Over

Rake
I used to wake and run with the moonI lived like a rake and a young manI covered my lovers with flowers and woundsMy laughter, the devil, would frightenThe sun, she would come to beat me back downBut every cruel day had its nightfallI'd welcome the stars with wine and guitarsFull of fire and forgetfulMy body was sharp; the dark air, cleanAnd outrage, my joyful companionWhispering women, how sweet did they seemKneeling for me to command themTime was like water but I was the seaI never have noticed it passingExcept for the turning of night into dayAnd the turning of day into cursingYou look at me now, don't think I don't knowWhat all of your eyes are asayin'Cause you want us to believe these ravings and liesThey're just tricks his brain's been aplayin'Lover of women, he can't hardly standLetras de cancionesHe trembles, he's bent and he's brokenI've fallen, it's true but I say onto youHold your tongues until after I've spokenI was taking my pride in the pleasures I'd knownI laughed and thought I'd be forgivenBut my laughter turned round, eyes blazing and said,“My friend, we're holding a wedding”I buried my face but it spoke once againThe night to the day we're remindingAnd now the dark air is like fire on my skinAnd even the moonlight is blindingAnd now the dark air is like fire on my skinAnd even the moonlight is blinding From Letras Mania
