Your Name On My Tongue Lyrics - Tooth & Nail - Billy Bragg

I heard the bell ringing 

In tower of last desire 

Crum fumb small beginnings 

The living world undone 

Now it hums that is singing 

Like words out on the wire 

They don't like surrender 

Your name on my tongue 

Grief was my companion 

It pushed me like a seed 

Compass blade at my fool 

Pointing up to the sun 

Fear bears a strange courage 

It's a whole conspiracy 

The troops kneel down the path 

Your name on my tongue 

Your name on my tongue 

Your name on my tongue 

Your name on my tongue 

Get up, get up, fix it up, no time 

Get up, fix it, fix it up, no time 

Get up, get up, fix it up, no time 

Get up, fix it, fix it up, no time 

Cause I'm still in love, yeah I'm still in love 

I've set out a table, I've made up my bed 

Ceiling above my head, the floor down 

But I've barely been able 

To hold my own on my peace 

But I'll never let go, 

Your name on my tongue 

Your name on my tongue 

Your name on my tongue 

Your name on my tongue.
