Devon Sproule - White King at Georgetown Green lyrics



Stayed up listening to you cough
Tired eyes watching the sun come up and
Black trees a dark Richmond street grew light
As we tried desperately to sleep and
Faded out and faded in I hold it all tight
Right here in my hands
Well, OK, I hold it all loosely

We couldn’t have slept for more than an hour or two to wake up in a strange house
With the same sun and you sitting straight up ‘neath your tangled hair
Me over here in the bed and you over there on the chair
And all we do is ask each other questions
We sit naked in our conversations
So distant and doubtful so insistent on fall
And beating and beating and beating and beating it out like a drum

I sat outside drinking and drinking like you do
Like you always do
I saw a white kite stuck up in the tree
It wants so bad to be free but it needs so bad the company
I tried to call you to tell you I thought it was you
I’m sure you were drunk too and
Beating it out like a drum
Beating it out like a drum

You and I, when we look at the sky we find so many more words to describe
It feels like a long drive, like a slow sunrise
And in your lights I can see you for miles
