lirik lagu sufjan stevens - john my beloved — iphone demo
[verse 1]
are we to speak, first day of the week
stumbling words at the bar
beauty blue eyes, my order of fries
long island kindness and wine
beloved of john, i get it all wrong
i read you for some kind of stone
covered in lines, the fossils i find
have they no life of their own?
[chorus 1]
so can we pretend sweetly
before the mystery ends?
i am a man with a heart that offends
with its lonely and greedy demands
there’s only a shadow of me; in a manner of speaking i’m dead
[verse 2]
such a waste, your beautiful face
slumbering carpet arise
but you and your ring, your life-giving string
come to me now as a friend
if history speaks, the kiss on my cheek
i’m painting the hills blue and red
they said beware, lord hear my prayer
anointing my love on your head
[chorus 2]
so can we be friends sweetly
before the mystery ends?
i love you more than the world can contain
in its loneliest ramshackle head
there’s only a shadow of me; in a manner of speaking i’m dead
[verse 3]
i’m holding my breath
my signature death
what can be said of my heart?
if history speaks, the kiss on my cheek
where there remains but a mark
beloved my john, so i’ll carry on
counting my cards down to one
and when i am dead, return to the bed
my fossil is bright in the sun
