Written by the incomparable Jon Fickes. An amazing song I'm glad he let us steal..

lyrics

“The Dark Lovely”
(Words and Music by Jon Fickes)

Cars are crashing, Trains are smashing
Rivers freezing, Oceans bleeding
The Moon is deflating like so many Balloons
And its so hot in this Room
For I am finshed and gone, gone...

The Heavenly Choir is singing Dirges
And an old man is dying alone in Brooklyn
Oh, I’ll not speak in Words I’ll speak in Flowers
And spite all the consonants wasting my hours
For I am finished and gone, gone...

Rodeo Popcorn and black, black Coffee
On that pier above the water so Haunted and Cloudy
Oh, Come to me in The Dark Lovely...
And flash me that picture of when we were both so young...
