Missy Higgins - Moses lyrics

rate me

<span class="feat">(originally by Patty Griffin)</span><br>

<br>

Diamonds, roses, <br />

I need Moses, <br />

to cross this sea of loneliness, <br />

part this red river of pain. <br />

<br />

and I don't necessarily buy, <br />

ever key to the future, <br />

or happiness but I, <br />

need a little place in the sun sometimes or I think I will die. <br />

<br />

and everything is somewhere, <br />

and nowhere is near, <br />

everybody's got somebody with their wine and their beer, <br />

and I'm just this tragic figure in this corner over here, <br />

with an empty apartment and my best friend who is a queer. <br />

<br />

and everytime, seeing me smiles, <br />

and he tells me how well he's walking these miles, <br />

but he never asks a single thing about me, <br />

if I dies, he'd hear about it eventually, <br />

<br />

Diamonds, roses, <br />

I need Moses, <br />

to cross this sea of loneliness, <br />

part this red river of pain, <br />

oh, oh, oh, oh and everywhere is somewhere, and nowhere is near, <br />

everybody's got somebody with their wine and their beer, <br />

and I'm just this tragic figure in this corner over here, <br />

come home to an empty apartment and calls her best friend who is queer. <br />

<br />

Diamonds, roses, <br />

I need Moses, <br />

to cross this sea of loneliness, <br />

part this red river of pain, <br />

to cross this sea of loneliness, <br />

part this red river of pain, <br />

to cross this sea of loneliness, <br />

part this red river of pain.
