Carp 18 Lyrics

Words to Hold Onto
  by Joe Fahey
 
first time was on the night of the jammies
man sized action was just leaving the stage
you asked me if I was somebody
I told the truth and you stayed anyway

I need some words to hold onto
throw me some bread crumbs to leave down memory lane
I need some words to hold onto
let 'em pour just like a sweet august rain

next time was at a retro performance
ceramic Elvei enshrined in a case
you asked me if I was still married
I told the truth and you stayed anyway

I need some words to hold onto
throw me some bread crumbs to leave down memory lane
I need some words to hold onto
let 'em pour just like a sweet august rain

the last time was on a rooftop with tables
I raised the menu till it covered my face
you asked him if he was somebody
he told the truth and you stayed anyway

I need some words to hold onto
throw me some bread crumbs to leave down memory lane
I need some words to hold onto
let 'em pour just like a sweet august rain
