Songs: Ohia - The Big Game Is Every Night lyrics

rate me

It'll get so quiet when this record ends You can hear the first hour of the world You can hear the willow branches touch the wave Write our names beside our Darlings' heart Write our names besides no one's heart Rise moon on the shores of the seas Shine on the distance between me and the last thing I see Let it be me helping Let it be me honestly Let it be me working On being a better me Rise moon on the shores of the seas Shine on the distance between me and the last thing I see Now light the field for the big game tonight Mark twain to Thomas Jefferson strike Luke the Drifter to Zimmerman line drive (to keep the team alive) Unitas to Berry... scarry Everything against you sweetness... You bring the first down again See it's ones like this you can always trust Not to disappoint us Moon shine that white lightning light Down on the Possums' stage tonight Maybe on the Man in Black You could hold a little something back Let his eyes adjust to the light Rise Moon Rise above me Show an American if really I am the snake they're all saying If they look up here do they see just my black tail swaying? If I'm all fangs and all lies and all poison If I'm really what they're saying I don't want to disappoint them.
