lyrics
Press my finger to your wounded side. Feel the blood that is yet to dry. I watch it cover every part of me, it's in my eyes, it's on my feet. Could it be you are my only friend? Could it be that I will enter into the land that was promised me? Will you be there? Will you remember me?
You have seen me in the other room, you have heard the words I hid from you. My jealous tongue, my naked fumbling. My own despair, alone and on my knees. Your perfect face would not turn away. I felt the burning of my own disgrace. There is a song, I hear it now and then. An ancient song I hear them sing.
Holy, holy, holy. Oh, so holy.
I walk the hills far away from you. I've seen oceans of the deepest blue. Still, your face seems to follow me, painted on the rocks, it's in the leaves.
Holy, holy, holy. Oh, so holy.
I want the clearest water to cleanse my tongue, I want the truest note to sing. I want to settle in the kind of place where there is not fear, where I am relieved.
Jody Stephens of Big Star and Luther Russell of the Freewheelers team for a radiant LP packed full of slide guitar and pop smarts. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 11, 2019
