New Partner Lyrics by Will Oldham

Songs of Love and Horror

2018

[Verse 1]
There's a black tinted sunset with the prettiest of skies
Lay back, lay back, rest your head on my thighs
There is some awful action just breathes from my hand
Just breaths from a deed so exquisitely grand

[Pre-Chorus]
And you are always on my mind
You are always on my mind
You are always on my mind
You are always on my mind

[Verse 2]
Well, I would not have moved if I knew you were here
It's some special action with motives unclear
Now you'll haunt me until I've paid for what I've done
It's a payment which precludes the having of fun

[Pre-Chorus]
But you are always on my mind
You are always on my mind
You are always on my mind
You are always on my mind

[Chorus]
But ho, I've got a new partner riding with me
Yes, I've got a new partner now

[Verse 3]
But the sun's fading faster, we're ready to go
There's a skirt in the bedroom that's pleasantly low
And the loons on the moor, all the fish in the flow
And my friends, my friends, they still whisper hello
We know what we know, it's a hard swath to mow
When you think like a hermit you forget what you know

[Pre-Chorus]
But you are always on my mind
You are always on my mind
You are always on my mind
You are always on my mind

[Chorus]
But ho, ho, I've got a new partner riding with me
Yes, I've got a new partner riding with me
I've got a new partner now
