JJ & The Acoustic Machine - Front Porch Lights lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

I've written songs about friendship, about love and revolution

Sudden memories and feelings of common retribution

The whole line of shades of affection

Often written down when I felt something was breaking up

Song for friends, the girls I fell for and the ones I never got

Nasty landlords with too much time, even I think that they got(?)

When questioning my faith in Christian religion

The artist which is you and my voice echoed in my head

(Chorus)

So move and take the door, but don't forget another set of strings

Don't escape in the night, cause soon

Stand in the front porch of the world,

Stay, there's a candle, it be sure

It doesn't light the road to ruin

(Verse)

The rabbits leave their holes of flowers fade away in the ground

And no one's askin' why you're afraid to take a van,

Find perfect words for perfect sounds

So ask yourself why not make a revelation

If even bloody snails leave their houses to move on?

(Chorus x2)

So move and take the door, but don't forget another set of strings

Don't escape in the night, cause soon

Stand in the front porch of the world,

Stay, there's a candle, it be sure

It doesn't light the road to ruin
