Dear Arkansas Daughter

歌詞

take a swim in the water take a swim in the water dear Arkansas daughter you with the dark curls you with the watercolor eyes you who bares all your teeth in every smile he says 'i can always hear you sing, i wanna hear you speak to me' while a stranger braids my hair back out on the street and in your dreams we are shooting at snakes and while you were asleep I was surely awake I was talking at a cigarette with nothing left to say but he should of been there any way cause I didn't sing a single song all day as my love for you dies as my love for you dies as my love for you is steadily dying as sharp and serious as a pistol in the eye my blood is full of swords full of swords your heart it knows the lord. tie my hands and I knock my knees as I kneel down, kneel down in the sea to the ocean floor I will sink like a steel chest full of weapons on the spine of the tide you will rise like a red ripe, a red ripe apple take a swim in the dirty water dear Arkansas daughter take a swim in the dirty water darling child, true love of mine as my love for you dies as my love for you is steadily dying darling child, true love of mine darling child, true love of mine true love of mine
