Mehitabel's Blues Lyrics - Jolie Holland

Feeling my blues, I tear myself away 

He will never have to hear what I had to say 

My little words are lost in the wind 

With no where to go and I am just like them 

There's a voice in the alley in the cold bare arms of a tree 

When the moon sails high, a ghost ship in a dark and lonely sea 

Mockingbird, your song burns right through me 

I know why you singing, all the day and every night 

Like that little mockingbird, high up in the pine 

All I do is worry, all I do is cry 

We're lost in the shadows of a beautiful spring 

Empty-handed lovers and all we do is sing
