《Esmee By the River》歌词

[00:00:00] Esmee By the River - Danny Schmidt

[00:00:13] Esmee by the river a face like a blue jay

[00:00:16] A kiss for a shiver was a pretty brave trade

[00:00:19] Knowing too little but hands know their own way

[00:00:23] And hoping that the river might just purr a bit more

[00:00:26] Hoping that the river might just purr some more

[00:00:30] Now its been most a year and i still sometimes wonder

[00:00:33] Did i step too far or run too soon

[00:00:36] Til you chased both our fears off with rose-petal thunder

[00:00:40] And lit up the river with a heart-sized moon

[00:00:56] Esmee by the river a face like a rainbow

[00:00:59] Butterflies growling but what does the gut know

[00:01:03] Bourboned and prowling for faces or footholds

[00:01:07] But i could see through your eyes like the storm-pane was gone

[00:01:10] I could see through your eyes like the storm-panes gone

[00:01:14] And i knew i was moved that you stood so open

[00:01:17] And i saw i was drawn to peek inside

[00:01:20] Was the glass so pure or the window broken

[00:01:24] But the river reached up and it carried me on

[00:01:40] Esmee by the river a face like a memory

[00:01:44] Patient and pissed like a black mans song

[00:01:47] I carved you a poem from rosewood and ebony

[00:01:51] And threw it to the river to carry along

[00:01:54] I hope when she brings it all slinky and sly

[00:01:57] That youll slide on in it and taste of its verse

[00:02:01] You ask will i write you and of course the reply

[00:02:04] Is that rivers of honey they sing honey of course

[00:02:08] Rivers of honey they sing honey of course

[00:02:12] Rivers of honey they sing honey
