Talisman Lyrics by Moulettes

Moulettes

2010

Sweet mercy young up and gone and left me lonesome
What a melancholy habit
Well, a rolling stone just got to roam
Your hat is where your home is
Oh, for your sake all the hearts I would break
Just for the reckoning
What should I do to survive?
Where should I go for sustenance?
And how will it suffer
No, it would not do to reply
There is no viable utterance
Nature's delights are worth a few bites
So come under the canopy
Casting the bones across the table again
Kiss the talisman, roll the wheel
Cast off the anchor and we're sailing again
Tilt the rudder and turn the keel
So carry on traveler
Cut loose your burden
And sit a while beside me
Circumstances collide
You can't stop the tide steady advancing
What would you stake and which wager forsake?
Oh the plot, you see, is always thickening
Casting the bones across the table again
Kiss the talisman, roll the wheel
Cast off the anchor and we're sailing again
Tilt the rudder and turn the keel
One for solace, two for courage
Three for protection on the voyage
Four for fortune, five for tomorrow
Six and seven for loss and sorrow
One for solace, two for courage
Three for protection on the voyage
Four for fortune, five for tomorrow
Six and seven for loss and sorrow
