As Lucerne/The Low - Medley

There is no blues that can sound quite as heartfelt as mine
Lamented at the gorge of the river,
I watched it weep its banks dry
I hum the sorriest tune on the bar at these dives
Send all the patrons running home
to make up with their first wives

But the low
And to bask

But the low

And to bask

My prose is purple
but not as pretty as Lucerne
For sweet nothings from the lips of a gargoyle,
nobody ever yearned

Perpetually a philistine,
but darling, I am longing to learn

Been looked at like the rotten grape on the vine,
while you and yours are drinking Sauternes

But the low
is what I came for
And to bask
in a darkness I do adore
But the low
is what I came for
And to bask
in a darkness I do adore
But the low
is what I came for
And to bask
in a darkness I do adore
But the low

is what I came for
And to bask
in a darkness I do adore

I do adore,

I do adore,
I do adore

(istrumental)

I am the magpie's solo,
the sorrow that makes you salute
Pounding the earth for the early worm,

I am a glutton but it's good for my glutes
I was solace to the sirens,
the bait on the fisherman's rod
The hook took me far from my family,
but closer to God

But the low
is what I came for
And to bask
in a darkness I do adore
But the low
is what I came for
And to bask
in a darkness I do adore
But the low
is what I came for
And to bask
in a darkness I do adore
But the low
is what I came for
And to bask
in a darkness I do adore
But the low
is what I came for
But the low
is what I came here for
But the low
is what I came for
But the low
is what I came here for
