Cat Power Oh Time Lyrics

Oh Time Lyrics

the beat goes on, goes thunk, thunk, thunk

i gotta go after this one

drive me mad if i'm too cluttered

when the boy became a man

i
knew his hand would trade to others

he told me to do as he said

and
then he sold me as if i was stuffed and dead



Oh time, great
healer



rode a boat low and steady

the (?) girl is armed and
ready for the race

how could i compare how could i have dared

she
knows not the brazilian ocean gate

she knows not what the horseback
forest raved

she knows not the length of your hair in my hands

she
knows not what the wet of your face has meant



a ticket to atlanta
family knows another now

a ticket from atlanta family knows and others
shot down



you win,

i'll give in,

i forgive you



Oh time, great healer
