Periphery Waltz-Jolie Holland

[ti:Periphery Waltz] [ar:Jolie Holland] [al:Catalpa] [by:] [offset:0] [00:00.00]Periphery Waltz - Jolie Holland [00:29.22]When the supreme authorities of our culture [00:37.14]Tell us to get down on our knees [00:40.32]And beg for salvation from some divinity [00:45.88] [00:49.05]Is it any wonder there are people [00:53.61] [00:54.18]Begging on the street for salvation from poverty [01:00.60] [01:03.22]Well it's no surprise to me it's no surprise to me [01:10.91] [01:15.72]I left my home in the church [01:18.68] [01:19.25]I left my home in the suburbs to wander [01:23.93] [01:28.17]I did it all for my dreams and the star [01:33.35]That I followed fell from the periphery [01:39.35] [01:41.04]And the street lights slipping down [01:44.03]My windshield fell like falling stars [01:48.86] [01:53.12]Down a dark country road [01:56.18]I first left my home when I was seventeen [02:00.79] [02:04.86]And I paid my respects to my fellow rejects [02:10.84]But I tended to wander alone like I was listening [02:19.13]To the words of a song whispered soft and low [02:25.21] [02:28.58]It's kind of like dancing [02:32.50]It's kind of like losing your mind [02:34.27] [02:40.95]And I've often considered [02:44.82]The impractibility of my life [02:48.69] [02:52.93]And the moon behind the clouds is ill defined [02:59.61] [03:04.22]I got lost so many times but I could not [03:12.39]Be consigned to a fate of obsolescence [03:21.50] [03:22.19]And decline so I'll take the chance again [03:31.74] [03:34.36]And the mockingbird is my friend [03:37.92] [03:40.16]When he sings a song in the warm midnight wind [03:47.41] [03:51.46]So I'll follow my old tune and I'll wish you good morning
