High and Lonesome
Forever and Always and Always Forever
Sink like a stone, rose like a feather
Before it gets worst, its bound to get better
You won't believe the shape that I'm in
I have an old friend they call him the breeze
Sleeps with mosquitos out in the trees
He speaks with voices that no one can hear
They don't have thumbs, so he cracks them a beer
They ramble in tongues I don't understand
Drink raspberry wine and feed off the land
They listen to Levon sing with the band
Oh, that high and Lonesome sound
Forever and Always and Always Forever
They'll be hard days in the finest of weather
Before were apart, It's time to get better
You won't believe the shape that I'm in
Jumped in a river, got caught in a tide
Strengthened my stroke but swallowed my pride
Spit me out gasping on the other side
Why don't we go dancing tonight?
I'll be Confucius, you'll be Aphrodite
We'll be the light and the life of the party
We'll have the steamiest discourse nightly
Sweep out the ashes before the dawn
I've been a servant and I've been a king
I've been washed up and heard wild birds sing
Been down on the bottom and I have been purged
Drank from the bottle, and sipped the last word
But I've never seen anybody like you
Who runs to cold water and kicks off their shoes
Sets fire to anything that you can't use
Oh, why don't you come see me tonight?
Forever and Always and Always Forever
Forever expanding till were pushed together
Before it gets worst, its bound to get better
You won't believe the shape that I'm in
Sink like a stone, rose like a feather
Before it gets worst, its bound to get better
You won't believe the shape that I'm in
I have an old friend they call him the breeze
Sleeps with mosquitos out in the trees
He speaks with voices that no one can hear
They don't have thumbs, so he cracks them a beer
They ramble in tongues I don't understand
Drink raspberry wine and feed off the land
They listen to Levon sing with the band
Oh, that high and Lonesome sound
Forever and Always and Always Forever
They'll be hard days in the finest of weather
Before were apart, It's time to get better
You won't believe the shape that I'm in
Jumped in a river, got caught in a tide
Strengthened my stroke but swallowed my pride
Spit me out gasping on the other side
Why don't we go dancing tonight?
I'll be Confucius, you'll be Aphrodite
We'll be the light and the life of the party
We'll have the steamiest discourse nightly
Sweep out the ashes before the dawn
I've been a servant and I've been a king
I've been washed up and heard wild birds sing
Been down on the bottom and I have been purged
Drank from the bottle, and sipped the last word
But I've never seen anybody like you
Who runs to cold water and kicks off their shoes
Sets fire to anything that you can't use
Oh, why don't you come see me tonight?
Forever and Always and Always Forever
Forever expanding till were pushed together
Before it gets worst, its bound to get better
You won't believe the shape that I'm in
