Fox in the City Lyrics by Mount Moriah

How to Dance

2016

[Chorus]
I laid low inside the city
I thought I saw you down on a road
But it was only smoke risin’ from concrete
Yeah, it was just a ghost of someone who lost me
[Verse 1]
Richmond called me down beside her
Or it could low, be still like water
Don’t call it your, a secret offer
Hold me to your palms, as if a daughter
I know you’re tired from a ride along
Born and wild, to [?] long
I know you’re tired to let the altar tow
Born and wild, to [?] long
You keep firm, stretchin’ the canvas
A linseed stir, a pair of flailin’ fists
Well, it’s got a fight in the wise spirit
The apron tied around your hips
I know you’re tired
(Ah)
From a ride along
(Ah)
Born and wild
(Ah)
To [?] long
(Ah)
I know you’re tired
(Ah)
To let the altar tow
(Ah)
Born and wild
(Ah)
To [?] long
[Chorus]
I laid low outside the city
I thought I saw your crossed arms [?]
But it was only smoke risin’ from farm gates
Yeah, it was just a ghost of someone who knows
