Dannyboy Lyrics - Rufus Wainwright - Rufus Wainwright

Your skin is cold 

But the sun shines within your hold 

Your hair is gold 

But you see through a goldfish bowl 

I feel old, sick, and tired 

We walk the streets 

Gently staring, wondering what to do 

The sun in sheets 

Pouring down those streets to eyes green and blue 

And a ship with eight sails could come round the bend 

Or a heard of bulls charging stoplights red 

I'd be blind

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

You broke my heart, danny boy 

Not your fault, danny boy 

I was had at the doorstep 

Played, like a two to a four-set 

Had, like poor job in the bible by god 

Day comes, i wake 

I wake with a hard heartache 

I go down to your place 

We sit and chat about new york 

And trips to the bayou 

My smile, a trick 

Tricking me and trying not to scare you 

And a ship with eight sails could come round the bend 

Or a heard of bulls charging stoplights red 

I'd be blind
