Ghosts of hallelujah lyrics

Artist  : Gourds 
Song : Ghosts of hallelujah
 
Our candles are in danger from the way we carry
them
So keep yer matches handy and wait to see if
when
The ghosts of hallelujah trickle through the
walls
Brandishing the wrong words nail the cursings in
the hall

The ghosts of hallelujah leave you there alone
Counting bottles of medicine and longing for yer
home
Don’t forget the hands that made you
Don’t forget yer lonely days
And soak yer heart in clover anytime you feel it
sway

"i’ve got no harmless longings" at
least that’s what she said
As night came even closer to the bare hips of my
bed
So temptation sings a slow song and wraps yer
lust in shame
The women take on new lives as you swagger with
the lame

The ghosts of hallelujah leave you there alone
Counting bottles of medicine and longing for yer
home
Don’t forget the hands that made you
Don’t forget yer lonely days
And soak yer heart in clover anytime you feel it
sway
