Deep Wilson - Kristin Hersh

Slipping down railings and balconies

With a sleepy ease I never knew

I never gave my way to you

Indigent darkness, thick as a dream

A liquid party underneath

Though I’m still shaky and weak

Knees pressed against the leather couch

I couldn’t find my bra

And you were so familiar

I think that I leaned out too far

I wouldn’t have if my heart

And my stomach hadn’t fallen so hard

That’s some hat trick

An effortless move

That tearful frantic creature seems far away from here

My New Orleans nickel ring

Your deep Wilson tattoo

Under the bullshit radar, I came to find you

Knees pressed against the leather couch

I couldn’t find my bra

And you were so familiar

I think that I leaned out too far

I wouldn’t have if my heart

And my stomach hadn’t fallen so hard

Knees pressed against the leather couch

I couldn’t find my bra

And you were so familiar

I think that I leaned out too far

I wouldn’t have if my heart

And my stomach hadn’t fallen so hard
