Townes Van Zandt - Rake слова песни

by Townes Van Zandt
Proofread and authorized by Jeanene Van Zandt

I used to wake and run with the moon
I lived like a rake and a young man
I covered my lovers with flowers and wounds
my laughter the devil would frighten
The sun she would come and beat me back down
but every cruel day had its nightfall
I`d welcome the stars with wine and guitars
full of fire and forgetful

My body was sharp the dark air clean
and outrage my joyful companion
whisperin` women how sweet did they seem
kneelin` for me to command them
And time was like water but I was the sea
I`d have never noticed it passin`
except for the turnin` of night into day
and the turnin` of day into cursin`

You look at me now, and don`t think I don`t know
what all your eyes are a sayin`
Does he want us to believe these ravings and lies
they`re just tricks that his brains been a playin`?
A lover of women he can`t hardly stand
he trembles he`s bent and he`s broken
I`ve fallen it`s true but I say unto you
hold your tongues until after I`ve spoken

I was takin` my pride in the pleasures I`d known
I laughed and thought I`d be forgiven
but my laughter turned `round eyes blazing and
said my friend, we`re holdin` a wedding
I buried my face but it spoke once again
the night to the day we`re a bindin`
and now the dark air is like fire on my skin
and even the moonlight is blinding
