Pray For Breath Lyrics by Jason Dea West

Journey in Today

0

[Verse]
I was a young boy on my weary way
I was low down and hungry, livin' it day by day
Then comes Daisy, burnin up my trail
She’s got eyes of fire and a face that's always pale
[Pre Chorus]
She comes from a place, never go back
Likes to have her breakfast by the railroad track
She said, “take me as I am, take me I am here
Why don't you lay down with me now poor boy for the end is almost here”
[Chorus]
And I said “oh dear lover, is there any other way?”
She disappears and the sky went gray
You are all that I have left
So close your eyes and pray for breath
Close your eyes and pray for breath
[Verse]
Oh that lady had so much style
Made me smile for a little while then one day she was gone
Oh sweet Daisy, movin fast and free
Got a tattoo on her forehead, take a little ride on me
[Pre Chorus]
She comes from a place, never go back
Likes to have her breakfast by the railroad track
She said, “take me as I am, take me I am here
Lay down with me now poor boy for the end is almost here”
[Chorus]
And I said “oh dear lover, is there any other way?”
She disappears and sky went gray
You are all that I have left
So close your eyes and pray for breath
Close your eyes and pray for breath
[Bridge]
She reappears in a dream
Dancin’ in the moonlight, it's a coyote scream
You have only brought me pain
