Mipso - Take Your Records Home Lyrics
Take your records home
I can't hear them anymore
Take your records home
Left here, lying on the floor
Circles in the carpet, on and on and on
Like a stranger
Take your records home
I've forgotten what they'...
Mipso - Squirrels Lyrics
Can't keep myself from tryin'
Last night found myself lying in bed
I kept wreckin my head on the things i said how it could have been different
Lonley instead
Oh my

My head, my heart, my...
Mipso - Cry Like Somebody Lyrics
You cry like somebody with nothing to cry about
Tears running down into your open mouth
Moaning like a dog that wants out
You cry like somebody who chose the road most traveled down
Who dreams of tennis skirts and wedding gowns
...
Mipso - Down In The Water Lyrics
Keep my mind
Down in the water where I bathe and let it
Steep my mind
Down in the water
I have been a fool for shame
Like a sunburnt lover of the far-away
But when you come home waving all your tourist claims
The gate falls...
Mipso - Edges Run Lyrics
I walked on water
I left the fodder to the other ones
But I grew a taste for cud
They had always smelled my blood
The edges run
The edges run all over
I worked for money
I lived for running on the shaded road
But I cau...
Mipso - Hallelujah Lyrics
When I heard the news
I had trouble feeling anything
My heart was torn
My soul did sing
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
We'll say their names
Try our best to spread the blame
We'll do the dance
We'll hide from sham...
Mipso - All Behind Me Now Lyrics
There was a time I'd lay awake
Thinking of birthday cake or snow
Now the music's getting old
The night is just a sigh, lead to slow
Anyway you said you wanna go, oh
I guess it's the time. we can go to my house

Mipso - Weeper's Woe Lyrics
And the leaves are going red
Many men make their beds upon your shore
And the clouds becoming grey
And the story says it's been this way before
Hold on, little weepers
Keep your lamplight low
Let it burn wild in the wint...
Mipso - Golden Kettle Lyrics
Rising water, where I used to play
Not a current, but a cavalcade
Old stones I used to know, float away
[?]
Shout across the bough the first cold night
Morning memories are packed in white
You know I try to go, I can't p...
Mipso - Water Runs Red Lyrics
This house is a temple
Sanctified and simple
And the chimney leaks in the winter
Like a mother's lost her head
And the water runs red
The water runs red
I went to the doctor
Said there's red in the water
He look...
Mipso - Eliza Lyrics
Where did you come from Eliza?
Eliza
Where did you come from and where did you go?
Been wandering lonesome, Eliza
Eliza
And out of that darkness you lead me back home
Where did you come from, Eliiiiiza?
Blinded and cold
M...
Mipso - My Burden With Me Lyrics
I was on that train to the border town
I was on that train, I was freedom bound
I was on that train when the trestle fell
No arms to hold me as I said my farewell
Do you see that dove who flies to me?
Can you hear my love as he...
Mipso - Do You Want Me? Lyrics
Do you want me like I want you?
Do you wonder if I sleep alone at night?
I woke up early yesterday morning
I woke up with you still on my mind
Who am I to be your angel?
Who am I if not your friend?
Who am I if I'm all a...
Mipso - Carolina Calling Lyrics
In ten years I'll be older
Maybe living somewhere colder
Getting used to pavement under feet
These'll be our good old days
All the scenes that we'll replay
Before we scattered in the breeze
They say you can't...
Mipso - People Change Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Maybe in ten years
You'll call me on your telephone
Wondering if I'm all alone
Remember how we knew each other?
In ten years, everyone's been down the line
And we've all ended up fine
I no longer ...
Mipso - Talking In My Sleep Lyrics
I've got half a mind to move uptown
Tidy up, settle down
Train my hands to understand the working week
But all those buildings make me nervous
No shirt, no shoes, no Sunday service
I'm tired of talking in my sleep
O...
Mipso - Train Down The Line Lyrics
Grab onto her and keep her
Don't you let go
Can you tip toe? Can you thread a needle as you roll?
Heads or tails, she loves me
Not the other side
'Til you realize distance makes me hard to recognize
You can lay m...
Mipso - Oceans Lyrics
Remember when the word got out and it was gone
I went running down to the beach
It was true, there was silence all around
And dry sand far as I could see
They say in time it will get easier
They say you'll figure it out in...
Mipso - Pay In Full Lyrics
Been a long and lonely winter for my mother
Her mother dying slowly
It's hard to sit and see
The harvest with the seed, each day
The static on the TV screen is snowing
It's going out of season
There's a wall be...
Mipso - Servant To It Lyrics
I guess I was a gnome [?]
Like a stone, that you carry between your toes
It was rough I confess
Specialness, eyes on my juice box folks
I wish I knew what you need, philistine
When you say it's a stride, you-u-u
There...
Mipso - Everyone Knows Lyrics
Cold and dark, I would be the first to start
If ever there was need of fearless hearts
I'd be late for the road
And it's on and on and on
This miserable thing
And I've seen all road signs
I don't see road ...
Mipso - Moonlight Lyrics
I'm not a bird with a broken wing
I just felt like walking for a while
Such a shame to race through a pretty night
We've been high for a while now
It wasn't so much fun as coming down
I wonder how the clouds look fr...
Mipso - Sleep, Little Dreamer Lyrics
Go to sleep now, little dreamer
'Cos waking is done
And there'll be dreams there for the taking
Now the waking day is done
They'll be brighter than a pot o' gold
And sweeter than a honeycomb
Go to sleep now, ...
Mipso - Tried Too Hard Lyrics
I always took the wrong side of the high road
Always wondering what I'd leave behind
The thing I couln't find is a little peace of mind
Nothing left but losing on my side
It always hurts, but I never learn
If you play wi...
Mipso - Monterey County Lyrics
Facing the sun off of old Highway 1
I squint my eyes West toward the waves
I knew my folks missed me
But I somehow missed Christmas
Had a new place, thought I'd stay
A short, late night phone call from a number I knew
Th...
Mipso - Didn't Know Love Lyrics
Sitting on a bench here, thinking 'bout the temperature
Wondering if the anchors call for rain
Why would I return here, just to crash and burn here
All this place has offered me is pain
Nothing to report here, just a rusty p...
Mipso - When I'm Gone Lyrics
I am a man half a century from home
These calloused hands served their master well
Dear, nothing is the matter
We plow our fields and scatter in the wind
To end our days alone
I remember crawling into Grandma's open arms

Mipso - Coming Down The Mountain Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I was up to my elbows
You know the way it gets
I was looking for exits and I had far too many friends
So I packed up my suitcase
I threw away my phone
I told you I loved you, I just had to leave you alone
[Pre Cho...
Mipso - Spin Me Round Lyrics
Driving slow through the pouring rain
Passing Bristol, heading South
I've been thinking of reasons to leave you
But ran out
I try to say goodbye every county line
But something's clearer to me now
They say love'...
Mipso - Hurt So Good Lyrics
Hey there, Molly, hold your lamp up high
Meet me in the woods round midnight
For a to-and-fro, but we didn't know, oh
That it would hurt so good
Lay down easy in a bed of moss
I can still hear the crickets we were brushing...
Mipso - Marianne Lyrics
Marianne, I don't wanna wait
The chapel's full but the preacher's late
There's flies around our cake, can you shut the door
My daddy came from a different world
I knew enough when his lips curled
Nobody visi...
Mipso - Red Eye To Raleigh Lyrics
Take the red eye to Raleigh
Ring your doorbell at dawn
We can crawl back in bed it'll be like I was never gone
They say that time heals all, thats the easy part
Cus it sure does hurt just waiting on a broken heart
My broke...
Mipso - Captain's Daughter Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Thirteen nights to shore
That's what I bargained for
Six months gone a hired hand
Roll over the snow and ice
Every day is a roll of the dice
Dreamin' of hot, white sand
[Pre-Chorus]
Lord, if I'd o...
Mipso - Louise Lyrics
Me and Louise never had much luck
Just a couple of kids with a lot of love
Laid our fortunes on her daddy's old farm
Didn't see how dirt could do such harm
Seasons came and the seasons left
The only thing that changed wa...
Mipso - A Couple Acres Greener Lyrics
I've never been so hungry
Seems like twenty-two years, I've been looking for a fight
Never stayed in school for long, couldn't keep my patience on
Never had the motivation quite to get my timimg right
I want my sto...
Mipso - Bad Penny Lyrics
It all started when I kissed you
You smiled because you knew
There was something set in motion
Only currency could move
You led me to an empty bench inside a public park
You made me wait
You watched my watch
And watched the sk...
