Red House Painter - Void lyrics

rate me

Find another corner of the house

When you need to get away

Her guitar leans against the couch

Sometimes I pick it up and play

Loosen and stretch it's ancient strings

Until it sounds the way I feel

Brush my thumb against it soft

Give it life or give it pause

When you look up in my eyes

I'm looking down in yours

All looks good up in the sky

Down to your wooly carpet floor

And I know that I have picked

The most perfect songs out yet

Even on a sketchy day

Just outside her shore we stay

When all it's colours turn and dry

Will you live or will you die?

When all it's poets fall away

Will you go or will you stay?

Fill the void in me now

Making love to me girl

Red light cruising the night

Red light getting me home

Driving down the freeway in your truck

I watched the river flowing up

Headlights cutting through the night

Hear them pass this place in time

And I know that I have slept

In the warmest bedroom yet

Even on the coldest day

Here inside her shore we stay

A verse of hope

There on that reel

Lets you know the way I feel

Ram my fists up in your hair

Feel me cruise up in the air

Fill the void in me now

Making love to me girl

Red light cruising the night

Red light getting me home

Fill the void in me now

Making love to me girl

Red lights float in the night

Red lights getting me home

Fill the void in me now

Smile down on me girl

Red light cruising the night

Red lights getting me home

Fill the void in me now

Making love to me girl

Red lights float in the night

Red light getting me home

Pull the weight of me now

Wrapped around me so good

Red light cruising the night

Red lights getting me home

Pull the weight off me now

Wrapped around me so good

Red light cruising the night

Red light getting me home

Fill the void in me now

Making love to me girl

Red lights cruising the night

Red lights getting me home
