You With the Dark Curls Lyrics
[Intro]
Take a swim in the water
Take a swim in the water
Dear Arkansas daughter
[Verse 1]
You with the dark curls, you with the watercolored eyes
You who bears all your teeth in every smile
Says I can always hear you sing, I wanna hear you speak to me
While a stranger braids my hair back out on the street
And in your dreams we are shooting at snakes
And while you were asleep, I was surely awake
[Pre-Chorus]
I was talking at a cigarette
There’s nothing left to say
But he should have been there anyway
For I didn’t sing a single song, all day
[Chorus]
As my love for you dies
As my love for you dies
As my love for you is steadily dying
As sharp and serious as a pistol in the eye
[Verse 2]
My heart is full of swords
Full of, full of swords
Your love, it knows the Lord
Tie my hands and I’m on my knees
As I kneel down, I kneel down in the sea
To the ocean floor, I will sink
Like a steel chest full of weapons
And on the spine of the tide, you will rise
Like a red, ripe, red, ripe apple
Take a swim in the dirty water
Dear Arkansas Daughter
Take a swim in the dirty water
Darling, child, true love of mine
[Chorus]
As my love for you dies
As my love for you dies
As my love for you is steadily dying
Darling, child, true love of mine
Darling, child, true love of mine
