Folk Hero Lyrics by Loamlands

Sweet High Rise

2016

[Verse 1]
Saw her standing alone tonight
The stage was a poem
Holding words up to the bright light
And if you shook them right
The snow would fall down
And you could feel the winter in Carolina
And the crowd was quiet
She was 10 feet tall
A folk hero at her worst
And it all went down
Just like big John
When your hero's not a champion
[Chorus]
Nothing makes you want to cry
Its a sure way to lead a miserable doubt
Nothing makes you want to cry
[Verse 2]
She said let’s move on
So we all filed out
And took one look at that city skyline
As if we'd been blind
So now we'd see
All this time how in love we’d been
And we felt alright
We were 10 foot tall
Wе were warming our hands with words
And the crowd was quiеt
When it all went down
And you could feel the winter in Carolina
[Chorus]
And nothing makes you want to cry
Its a sure way to lead a miserable doubt
Nothing makes you want to cry
Its a sure way to find your doubt
Nothing makes you want to cry
