High like a kite on a holy mountain
Got nothing in our hands
Ain’t see a friendly face
Since you and I made land
Maybe the birds will fly
When the sun begins to shine
Maybe these rains are over
Maybe you’ll be mine
I keep listening to the same old songs
Over and over again
I love the way they make me feel so
Close to you again
So if I hold you, the way I used to
Would you hold me, the way I need you to
Like the sun and moon and of those stars at sundown
This misfit heart was made for you
Got cut up rough in that roadside cafe
With the miniature legionnaires
I only had money for one small coffee
Some bread that we could share
You can drag the mule to the water
You can even make him drink
You can tell him to bray and what to say
But you can’t tell him what to think
We’re all the same
Living in chains
All of us drowning in debt
Some dreams I’d pay to remember
And some I pray to forget
So if I hold you, the way I used to
Would you hold me, the way I need you to
Like the sun and moon and of those stars at sundown
This misfit heart was made for you
Peaches and plums oh those boys with their guns
They don’t care if you’re black or you’re white
If you got the money well they’ve got the honey
A room a meal for the night
I wrote you a letter that fair broke my heart
From the dreams of a traveller stranded
I used my last money to buy you a stamp
So I slept by the road under plastic
I keep listening to the same old songs
Over and over again
I love the way they make me feel
Close to you again
So if I hold you, the way I used to
Would you hold me, the way I need you to
Like the sun and moon and of those stars at sundown
This misfit heart was made for you
Like the sun and moon and of those stars at sundown
This misfit heart was made for you
