Go With God (Topless Shoeshine) Lyrics by Joe Henry

Trampoline

0

I like when I can stand up here
When the night is cool and clear
When everything is at my feet
And nothing in my hand
Words they seem so thick and slow
You can kill them all before they go
Watch them tumble down and spin
And leave them there for dead
Chorus: And shine, shine, it almost shines like
You were here with me
Below me bandits make the beach
And they open mussels with their teeth
And try to find a little shade
'Til they can find their way
For all it took is my belief
We shouldn't waste one moment's grief
I mean, what else we gonna leave our kids
When we're gone someday
Chorus: And shine, shine, it almost shines like
You were here with me
Now the trees all rage and come to life
The day gives out but he takes a wife
Who carries on behind his back
And lets the rabble through
The time has run away with us
And it laughs at all the tears we fuss
Best go with God
And let me trust the Ghost in here with you
Chorus: And shine, shine, it almost shines like
You were here with me
Shine, shine, it almost shines
Like you were here with me
