Breese

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Schoeck, Ludlow] It's a pain in my tooth It's a rock in my shoe I've been waiting for you Since my rock-a-bye youth Since my rock-a-bye youth [Chorus: Schoeck] Now I'm dreaming of the old skyway Thinking it's all I could do not to run away What if you were there when I lost my way? [Post-Chorus: Ludlow] Like an eagle in the sky In the eye of a hurricane Waiting to carry me home I wanna know Could I revel in the wind? Could I bathe in the light of day If you would have known me back then? [Verse 3: Schoeck, Ludlow] It's a faded tattoo It's a glass of wine, two It's a glass of wine, two It's a trauma; it's a bruise Yeah, I'm black and I'm blue I'm black and I'm blue [Chorus: Schoeck] Now I'm dreaming of the old skyway Thinking it's all I could do not to run away What if you were there when I lost my way? [Post-Chorus: Ludlow] If a body catch a body as it blunders through the rye Who's gonna carry it home? I wanna know Could I pretermit the song Singing back from where I came If you would have known me back then? [Bridge: Ludlow] We were kids playing songs in my basement memories Push the button to record, now we're out of batteries We're too scared of the sound of our voices when we sing What's the point of a song with a silent melody? In the room, with eyes closed, he listens to the game Is he hiding in the space between slow-motion frames? Is he staring at the eye? Is he caught in the hurricane? Little newborn, rocking to life [Chorus: Schoeck] Now I'm dreaming of the old skyway Thinking it's all I could do not to run away If you were there when I lost my way
