Sadness As a Gift - Adrianne Lenker & Buck Meek

Look out the window when that rain storms I let the wind blow up a brain storm And now I'm wondering whether weather like this gets you too It may go on like this for hours Too late in Fall for April showers So what we got here Got a thought or two I need to share with you Here goes Darling tell me now Have I done wrong somehow That you won't look at me It is pointed out Can't keep my wits about When you won't look at me Is there something I outta know You're finding hard to say Well there's just a trace Hiding on your face And I learned it that way Just another soul That really knows my soul And you won't look at me Does that take the prize How much I love those eyes And they won't look at me Now the rain has gone But something lingers on There's certain sadness here Now that the sky is clear And it's so so clear Yes, it's all so clear To me now And I can't help but feel That certain sadness's here To stay

一顆星孤單的照亮起風的海洋 兩顆星遙望卻間隔恆久的時光 我追得匆忙 我折斷了翅膀 只為了到有你的遠方 燃盡了月光 像落葉般飄蕩 你怎麼還不給我方向 傷夠了嗎 讓淚最後一次為你留下 痛夠了吧 不用在誰眼裡假裝堅強 看著那 結痂的傷 風乾昇華 在夜空中閃亮 該出發了吧 謝謝你曾經讓我悲傷 白晝和回憶在青春的沙灘蒸發 衝刷的浪花帶走了曾經的信仰 我追得匆忙 我折斷了翅膀 只為了到有你的遠方 燃盡了月光 像落葉般飄蕩 你怎麼還不給我方向 傷夠了嗎 讓淚最後一次為你留下 痛夠了吧 不用在誰眼裡假裝堅強 看著那 結痂的傷 風乾昇華 在夜空中閃亮 該出發了吧 謝謝你曾經讓我悲傷

John, listen up, I'm a wreck I'm a mess, this is not the effect Of a loss or a vex, this is you Hand me the key to your door Give me one solid week, give me four years To climb the stairs in pain John, it's time Let me be the moon you shine Let me be the honest home where you can rest Your tired mind You know me new, knew me well When I was just a girl, only nineteen Twisted in my head So don't try and tell me to help This is not how you help you to know me now In any way I said Don't get tired Honey, I won't keep you long I was just calling up to find out if you're Still in town

Cradle more The hours reel Cradle more How you feel Baby, you're still too proud to come down Maybe I'm still too loud to hear All the waves ascend and disappear Like a storm The air you steal Glacial form The icy heel Baby, you're still too proud to come down Maybe I'm still too loud to hear All the waves ascend and disappear Earth is born To wound and heal Cradle more The hours reel Baby, you're still too proud to come down Maybe I'm still too loud to hear All the waves ascend and disappear

Through your eyes I see A smile you bring to me To your joy, I tether Not a lot, just forever Intertwined, sewn together Like the rock bears the weather Not a lot, just forever My dog barks wildly To protect my infancy From my ex-believer And I try to calm the wolf To remind her I am both Still she tears at my sweater Not a lot, just forever Intertwined, sewn together As the wren sheds her feather Not a lot, just forever And your dearest fantasy Is to grow a baby in me I could be a good mother And I wanna be your wife So I hold you to my knife And I steal your letter Not a lot, just forever Intertwine some together As the rock bears the weather Not a lot, just forever So I bash around the house And the poison stains my mouth She comes, I let her And we share a paradise And I roll them once or twice Can't get much better Not a lot, just forever Intertwined, sewn together As the rock bears the weather Not a lot, just forever Not a lot, just forever Intertwined, sewn together As the wren bares her feathers Not a lot, just forever

What a dream that was I almost couldn't wake because I was frozen in bed with a zombie girl Vacant as a closed down fair Sleep paralysis, I sworn I could've felt you there And I almost could've kissed your hair But the emptiness withdrew me From any kind of wishful prayer Oh, emptiness Tell me 'bout your nature Maybe I've been getting you wrong I cover you with questions Cover you with explanations Cover you with music Then the next night Dreaming I could feel your skin But the dream escaped so easily And I wokе up to the road again How your words ring through Something kinda sweet and blue And I knеw that you'd been understanding Everything that I'd said, too About emptiness Tell me 'bout your nature Maybe I've been getting you wrong I cover you with questions Cover you with explanations Cover you with music What's on your mind? What's on your mind? What's on your mind? What's on your mind? On your mind
