dagger heart - guy smith lyrics

Loading...

she wielded love like a knife, he wore his heart on his sleeve
her needs came and they went, he had a need to believe
in a frisco coffee house, his songs poured like merlot
into her ears and her veins, she just had to say “h-llo”

heart lighter than air, his poetic eclipse
odes to romance, a smile stretched on his lips
they talked away hours, shared the morning’s afterglow
packed both their bags and they hit the road

his gigs became fewer once they reached santa fe
she wanted to run, he held her close anyway
his love became her anger, his heart wanted to explode
then that night in tulsa, she didn’t make the show

in a dirty backstage room, he wrote songs of disperse
confusion soaked lyrics, minor chords hung in the air
his poetry poisoned, fear rattling his bones
he peered through the spot light, he knew he was alone

bend them ‘till you break, drink away the ache
music pours like sweat, spend all night awake
was she really there, did she ever care
did she know she would make a heart with a tear

at a truck stop near dallas, his wallet now hers
an 18 wheel jimmy took off in a blur
stranded, abandoned, his soul stuffed in a case
his thumb in the air, the exhaust fumes his face

now only sorrow and whiskey and sorrow
hold back his rage
growling out lonesome blues
on a memphis tonk stage
