[ti:Over You] [ar:Billy Bragg] [al:Tooth & Nail] [by:] [offset:0] [00:00.21]Over You - Billy Bragg [00:05.45]This street is named for flowers [00:10.40]It's barren hot and gray [00:15.34]And shadows wheel on iron heels [00:20.84]And move along their way [00:24.84] [00:25.65]The light that soothes me evening [00:30.71]Has cut me clean in two [00:35.09]But my blood it runs with stars [00:39.96]And they've fallen over you [00:44.71] [00:54.71]Now the birds have stopped their whaling [00:58.90]They've been whaling all their fear [01:04.34]The town is meaningless folks unseen by us these many years [01:13.69]The waiting crowd in this blinding light like angry rivers do [01:22.59]But silence builds a bridge which is swinging over you [01:31.71] [01:41.71]It used be the wicked who surrender but no more [01:50.40]They'll draw a line through heart of mine then smooth it like a row [02:00.59]' host give up their ghosts like death is nothing new [02:09.40]But I could live forever when I'm dying over you [02:20.53] [02:27.37]I may learn someday to offer more than what I feel [02:37.06]To set aside this wholesome pride and put my shoulder to the wheel [02:46.56]Build our truth then raise the roof and not confuse the true [02:55.09]But still we stand of rafters and the swing and there's laughter risen over you
