VERSURI PATTY GRIFFIN
| Patty Griffin - Be Careful |
| All the girls in the Paris night
All the girls in the pale moonlight
All the girls with the shopping bags
All the girls with the washing rags
All the girls on the telephone
All the girls standing all |
| Patty Griffin - Blue Sky |
| The farther I come the farther I fall
Whatever I knew it was nothing at all
Nothing at all, just making me small
Smaller and smaller
I fall back
Sooner or later with a view from the ground
Chasing th |
| Patty Griffin - Boston |
| I went back to Boston
Back to the City of Lost Love
I went back to the place
And recognized your face in the stone long gone
I walked around Harvard Square
All the runaway kids are still hanging |
| Patty Griffin - Carry Me |
| Maybe they come by land
Maybe they come by sea
Maybe they've already come
Maybe they come by me
Slipping into the twilight
I ride the broken wave tonight
An old song on the radio
You knew a long |
| Patty Griffin - Change |
| Dog comes howling up behind you, sinks his teeth
in your leg
Tells you how now things are going to be a little
different
And he takes you down a peg
You make him ashamed for you, he buys you a new
dress |
| Patty Griffin - Chief |
| Chief had been out of the army
For 15 years or more
He was still marching up and down that street
Just like he was a-walking a war
They called him the chief because he was Indian
It was a name they sa |
| Patty Griffin - Christina |
| If you had the real thing how would you tell
Liars can say it all just as well
Every single word you've heard in vain
Baubles of gold, stars in your hair
Reflections that told that they were not there
|
| Patty Griffin - Every Little Bit |
| It's funny how a morning turns a love to shame
Disguised and disfigured and you thought I tasted
like rain
There`s nothing here but a shadow nothin here
Now you know
Now you know
Now you know
Now yo |
| Patty Griffin - Flaming Red |
| Took a walk around the block
Bought a candle it was
Flaming red flaming red
Thought a thought then
I forgot so
I sang a happy song
In my head in my head
Wore my red shoes
Wore my red shoes again
|
| Patty Griffin - Forgiveness |
| We are swimming with the snakes
At the bottom of the well
So silent and peaceful in the darkness where we
fell
But we are not snakes and what's more
We never will be
And if we stay swimming here forev |
| Patty Griffin - Goodbye |
| Occured to me the other day
You've been gone now a couple years
well, I guess it takes while
For someone to really disappear
I remember where I was
When the word came about you
It was a day much lik |
| Patty Griffin - Little God |
| Good morning little god
I see you've come for me again
With a noose between your teeth
You are not my friend
Pouring little cups of tea
Humming a little tune
You sit across from me
And fill my littl |
| Patty Griffin - Making Pies |
| It's not far
I can walk
Down the block
To TableTalk
Close my eyes
Make the pies all day
I stick a cap
On my hair
I used to mind
Now I don't care
I used to mind
Now I don't care
Cause |
| Patty Griffin - Moses |
| Diamonds, roses,I need Moses
To cross this sea of loneliness, Part this red
river of pain
I don't necessarily buy any key to the future or
happiness
But I need a little place in the sun sometimes Or
I t |
| Patty Griffin - One Big Love |
| Let's take a ride to the seaside
We can go out swimming in the high tide
Just wear your shorts and your long hair
Don't forget the lawn chair
Everybody's gone to the movies
Everybody's gone and it |
| Patty Griffin - Silver Bell |
| Silver bell
Silver bell
Yeah that's the name of the old motel
You were traveling when they fell
Down on a bed at the silver bell
How you been
I'm doing well
I hear you're digging a hole to hell
How |
| Patty Griffin - Sorry And Sad |
| You used to make me so mad
Make me so mad
I was almost glad why you make me so mad
And if I wasn't still mad
Probably feel sad
Sorry for you
So sorry and sad
Nothing was ever free
But you still h |
| Patty Griffin - Stolen Car |
| I met a little girl and I settled down
In a little house on out on the edge of town
We got married, swore we'd never part
Then little by little we drifted from eachother's
hearts
At first I thought it |
| Patty Griffin - Sweet Lorraine |
| Sweet Lorraine the fiery haired brown eyed schemer
Who came from a long line of drinkers and dreamers
Who knew that sunshine don't hold up to dark
Whose businesses fail
Who sleep in the park
Lorraine |
| Patty Griffin - Tony |
| Does anyone remember Tony
A quiet boy, little over weight
He had breasts like a girl
When I wasn't too busy feeling lonely
I'd stare over his shoulder
At a map of the world
He always finished all his |
| Patty Griffin - You Are Not Alone |
| She sees him laying in the bed alone tonight
The only thing a touching him is a crack of light
Pieces of her hair are wrapped around and 'round
his fingers
And he reaches for her side, for any sign of h |
| Patty Griffin - You Never Get What You Want |
| You first found me in my holding pen
Stopped to take a look and stuck your finger in
I bit one off and you came back again and again
Then the nice people let me out one day
And you told me how to act a |
