Until The Levee

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.

I see a ghost out on the water

I swear it has my face

I bending drink the lonely down, the lonely down

There's trouble on the river

And whispers in the trees

I can feel it all around, all around

I'm gonna stand

I'm gonna stand here in the ache

Until the levee, until the levee on my heart breaks

I'm gonna wait out past the shallows

And breathe the bitter taste

Gonna drink the lonely down, the lonely down

Let the current take me over

Let the ruin turn to wine

I can feel it all around, all around

I'm gonna stand

I'm gonna stand here in the ache

Until the levee, until the levee on my heart breaks

I'm gonna stand

I'm gonna stand here in the ache, the ache, the ache

So go and let it break

Take all I can take

I'm gonna stand

I'm gonna stand here in the ache

Until the levee, until the levee on my heart breaks

I'm gonna stand

I'm gonna stand here in the ache

Until the levee, until the levee on my heart breaks
