Crying Heart

from Oddities by Chris Shepard

lyrics

I feel my heart crying out to my lone baby
I hear my heart crying out for you

Ain't nobody in the world I know
Can get my weary body home so I can say goodbye
My roots, I fear, are all alone
I'll be leaving 'fore the dawn
Forever may I rise

Put my body in a muddy hole
Send my money to my baby and tell her that I tried
Tell my baby that I love her
Tell her I said goodbye

I feel my heart crying out to my lone baby
I hear my heart crying out for you

When I see you alone in your bed
I hear your voice in my head
And there's a world in the reflection of the pinpoint that you sent

Ain't no woman in the world I know
Can wait for me forever like I ask my love to do
And if my love should feel alone
Remember that I promise I will hover over you

Oh I'll hover over you
Even with my burden
I'll hover over you

And you'll hear my voice in your head
Feel me beside you in your bed
There's an endless world residing in the time that we spend

I feel my heart crying out to my lone baby
I hear my heart crying out for you
