Dead Leaves And The Dirty Ground Lyrics

Dead Leaves and the dirty ground when I know 

You're not around shiny tops and soda pops when I

hear your lips make a sound when I hear your lips make a sound



thirty notes in the mailbox will tell you that I'm coming home and I think I'd
better sick around for a while so you're not

alone for a while so you're not alone



soft hair and a velvet tongue I wanna give you what you give to me and every
breath that is in your lungs is a tiny little

gift to me



if you can hear a piano fall you can hear me coming down the hall if i could
just hear your pretty voice I dont think I'd

have to see at all I dont think I'd have to see at all



I didnt feel so bad til the sun went down

I got back home no one to wrap my arms around

to wrap my arms around

to wrap my arms around



any man with a microphone can tell you what he wants the most and you'll know
why you love at all if you're thinking of the

holy ghost if you're thinking of the holy ghost
