Bones
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Oh, go, far from this small town bar we know
Oh, go, frolic in the lights
That brought you here so very long ago
And hold, hold your lips so tightly
At the shadows, we go
'Cause I know, I know, I know
I know you can never be alone
'Cause it's just the bones you're made of
And you laugh like you've never been lonely
That's alright, honey
That's alright with me
And you laugh like there's hope in the story
That's alright, honey
That's alright with me
Oh, you laugh like I'll be there to hold you always
Always here
I'm always, honey, always here
Oh, go, silent as death on the first day of the snow
Oh, go, leave these fires burning
A house of embers and coal
And covert, covert all those boys that search
For love in your room
'Cause lust is just a child's game
And you, you were always late to bloom
And you laugh like you've never been lonely
That's alright, honey
That's alright with me
Oh, you laugh like there's hope in the story
That's alright, honey
That's alright with me
Oh, you laugh like I'll be there to hold you always
Always here
I'm always, honey, always here
And you love like you've always been lonely
That's alright honey
That's alright with me
Oh, you love him with all of your body
That's alright honey
That's alright with me
Oh, you love him like you'll be there for always
Always, honey, always near
Always, honey, always near
Always, honey, always near
Oh, far from this small town bar we know
Oh, go, leave me with this bird and this song
Out here in the cold
Because it's just the bones you're made of
