eid ma clack shaw

Singer:bill callahan

working through death's pain

last night i swear i felt your touch

gentle and warm

the hair stood on my arms

how

how

how?

now

show me the way

show me the way

show me the way

to shake a memory

show me the way

show me the way

show me the way

to shake a memory

i flipped my forelock

got twitched my withers

i reared and bucked

i could not put my rider aground

all these fine memories are fucking me down

i dreamed it was a dream that you were gone

i woke up feeling so ripped by reality

yeah

love is the king of the beasts

and when it gets hungry it must kill to eat

yeah

love is the king of the beasts

a lion walking down city streets

i fell back asleep some time later on

and i dreamed the perfect song

it held all the answers

like hands laid on

i woke halfway and scribbled it down

and in the morning

what i wrote

i read

it was hard to read at first but here's what it said: eid ma clack shaw zupoven del ba
