Lungs Lyrics - One Soul Now - Cowboy Junkies

(Townes Van Zandt) 

Well, won't you lend your lungs to me? 

Mine are collapsing 

Plant my feet and bitterly breathe up the time that's passing 

Breath I'll take and breath I'll give and pray the day's not poison 

Stand among the ones that live in lonely indecision 

Fingers walk the darkness down 

Mind is on the midnight 

"Gather up the gold you've found, 

you fool, it's only moonlight 

and if you try to take it home your hands will turn to butter 

You better leave this dream alone, try to find another"

Salvation sat and crossed herself and called The Devil partner 

Wisdom burned upon a shelf 

"Who'll kill the raging cancer?" 

Seal the river at it's mouth 

Take the water prisoner 

Fill the skies with screams and cries 

Bathe in fiery answers

Jesus was an only son and love his only concept 

Strangers talk in foreign tongues and dirty up the doorstep 

and I for one, and you for two ain't got time for outside 

Just keep your injured looks to you 

we'll tell the world we tried 

Keep your injured looks to you 

we'll tell the world we tried
