Over The Rhine - Daddy untwisted

Tekst :

Are you my daddy
are you

I don t wanna cut you up
drink you from a paper cup
I don t wanna spit you out
or kick you in the shin
I don t wanna knock you down
be your mother be a clown
I don t wanna talk about
the shit you re really in
I don t wanna take a bow
no one s clapping anyhow
I don t wanna sneak around
and pray you ll understand
I don t wanna call your bluff
enough s enough
I don t wanna see you
chained up

are you my daddy
are you

I don t wanna ruffle you
cut the deck and shuffle you
don t wanna come to fisticuffs
or stick you with a pin
I don t wanna argue
hurt your pride or make you blue
your tongue is forked and clearly
there are scales upon your skin
I don t wanna help ice crack
give you a surprise attack
I don t wanna cut you slack
and watch it go to hell
I don t wanna tell you lies
like presbyterians or spies
I don t wanna see you chained up

are you my daddy
are you

don t you run away
leave me like a rainy day
I don t wanna make you stay
or stand up high above you
don t want you to see me cry
I m just trying not to lie
I don t wanna see you chained up

    To Ty tylko Ty

    To ty, tylko ty potrafisz szczerze kochać mnie
    To ty, tylko ty rozumiesz wszystko, wszystko wiesz,
    Maleńka twoja dłoń koi cierpienie, ścisza lęk,
    Jak sen i jak liści szept...

    To ty, tylko ty odczytasz każdą moją myśl
    I wskażesz gdzie jest cel, kiedy w nieznane trzeba iść,
    Przez gwar,...

    Run to you

    I used to see the world in black and white
    Now i find myself lost in a fog of grey
    I thought the good guys always won the fight
    But i ve learned life simply doesn t work that way
    I once believed if i loved others they would love me, too
    But i ve...

    One for sorrow, two for joy

    Today is a winter Sunday.
    We wear our heavy coats.
    The soul of my brother
    is pure, though he doesn t think so.
    Oh one for sorrow,
    Oh one for sorrow, two for joy.

    We walk the whole two miles to Holly.
    I want to hold his hand but I don t.
    The thoughts of my brother,
    Where and...

    Maybe

    The sky now divides
    To bring you back into the fold
    Welcome home
    Still my need to recognize
    Any comfort you may show
    Only grows
    Guess I ll learn to accommodate
    While my heart just sits and waits
    Maybe God you found
    Maybe is all that you can offer now...

    Bitter joy

    The shadows grow taller
    A poison running through their hearts
    A night to remember
    Has come a night to crave desire (for bitter joy)

    Intoxicarion makes you warmer to debauch
    The lust in your vains now
    Has vome a point to crave desire

    My heart is all for open / for you two

    Our love...
