Jason Hawk Harris The Smoke And The Stars Lyrics
The Smoke And The Stars by Jason Hawk Harris
I don't like how they stare
I don't like them at all-
My yellow-eyed daughters
My cold-blooded sons
Or the forks in their tongues
Tell me, how was I s'posed to know
That they'd latch onto me and never let go?
And I never fight
I don't know why
It's been such a long time
But I hear you calling my name
And I know you're driving my way
So bring me the light
A man needs to see
And baby, please, get these things off of me
I'm standing with all I got left
When I see that door open and watch you walk in
And they shrivel and hiss
At the grace in your step
That was something to see
Then they all turn into fireballs
And roll to the corners and burn up the walls
And now it's just us-
With the smoke and the stars-
Holding hands in the dark
And I said, here you are, my love
Maybe I was just waiting for you
To get through the grapevine
And tear down that door
And let me live
Let me live
Let me live in those green eyes of yours
Let me live in those green eyes of yours
Let me live in those green eyes of yours
I don't like them at all-
My yellow-eyed daughters
My cold-blooded sons
Or the forks in their tongues
Tell me, how was I s'posed to know
That they'd latch onto me and never let go?
And I never fight
I don't know why
It's been such a long time
But I hear you calling my name
And I know you're driving my way
So bring me the light
A man needs to see
And baby, please, get these things off of me
I'm standing with all I got left
When I see that door open and watch you walk in
And they shrivel and hiss
At the grace in your step
That was something to see
Then they all turn into fireballs
And roll to the corners and burn up the walls
And now it's just us-
With the smoke and the stars-
Holding hands in the dark
And I said, here you are, my love
Maybe I was just waiting for you
To get through the grapevine
And tear down that door
And let me live
Let me live
Let me live in those green eyes of yours
Let me live in those green eyes of yours
Let me live in those green eyes of yours
