honey magpie - baggage and walls lyrics

[verse 1: charles latham and honey magpie]
hey little lady aren’t your arms getting tired of
dragging that weight around
got a suitcase of heartache straining into your hands
can’t you see that it’s bringing you down?
(ah) you don’t need to carry the weight of the world if you got a good man around
ain’t it time to let it go and lay your burden down (oh)

[chorus]
cry me a river bout my baggage and my walls
try to see how deeply it’ll move me
i’ve been hauling my weight through the world my whole life long
i’ve built my home my own safe and tall and strong
and i’m glad (don’t you wanna lay your burden down)
[?] (c’mon baby lay your burden down)
baby don’t you worry i’ve got everything you need
[verse 2]
my bags are packed with lessons and necessities
you’re just mad you’re useless to me
hey little lady ain’t it lonely inside
the stronghold surrounding your heart
i know those other men they hurt you so bad
ain’t it time for a brand new start
(ah) you don’t need to shut yourself away from the world
to keep you safe and sound
ain’t it time to open up and tear that wall on down (oh)

[chorus]
cry me a river bout my baggage and my walls
try to see how deeply it’ll move me
i’ve been hauling my weight through the world my whole life long
i’ve built my home my own safe and tall and strong
and i’m glad for (don’t you wanna tear that wall on down)
every tool i’ve kept out (c’mon baby tear that wall on down)
let your guard down baby you’re pushing away my love

[verse 3]
the wall around my heart it has an entry
you’re just mad that you don’t have a key
hey little lady if it’s true what you say then why is your face so grim
why don’t you soften up those icicle eyes
put a smile on and let love in
(ah) you don’t have to cut me with your straight razor tongue
hit me with your heart of stone
you better sand those edges or you’ll end up all alone
[chorus]
cry me a river bout my baggage and my walls
try and see how deeply it’ll move me
i’ve been hauling my weight through the world my whole life long
i’ve built my home my own safe and tall and strong
and i’m not scared (do you really wanna end up alone?)
to walk alone (c’mon baby or you’ll end up alone)
pity such a pretty girl would pick a life so lonely

[outro]
i feed my cats and spin my thread attentively
you’re just mad that you can’t have me
yea you’re just mad that you can’t have me
