field medic - crushed pennies lyrics
[verse 1]
i’ve never seen the darker side of green
or anything that made the seams
of my jacket seize and shut
there’s a hand that rings in the morning
and puts boots on my shivering feet
before my dreams are even done
paying twice the price of crushed pennies
to keep the circus lights glowing
while wagon wheels collect their dust
a film projector moves along my scenes
while behind the wall somebody’s name
is lost between all of the fuss
[verse 2]
a brunette heart born to complete the spring
whistles the words the birds would sing
brings up the garden all alone
keeps a clothespin while i’m traveling
for me to hang my victories
or else to dry my flooded hopes
waves erode all earthly certainty
but cannot make love lost at sea
we swallow deeply
but never choke
waves erode all earthly certainty
but cannot make love lost at sea
we swallow deeply
but never choke
[instrumental]
waves erode all earthly certainty
but cannot make love lost at sea
we swallow deeply
but never choke
waves erode all earthly certainty
but cannot make love lost at sea
we swallow deeply
but never choke
