My Eliza Lyrics & Tabs by Rachael Sage
My Eliza
guitar chords lyrics
It came to me as we were listening
To each other's stories
That I was really listening
To myself talk back to me
I always wished I'd had a sister
Who could also be a friend
Unafraid to secrets, completely
I was the younger of the two of us
No stranger to her anger
Reach out to grab my innocence
So afraid of what I'd seen
And I saw the smoke behind the mirrors
Where the minotaur was feeding
With a woman's appetite for smashing the serene
There'll be no down-pour in this desert
Where the minotaur was feeding
With a woman's appetite for smashing the serene
There'll be no down-pour in this desert
There'll be no sweet candy to calm this child
There'll be no jungle-gym to entertain the state I'm in
While my Eliza is still wild
Where does all the time go when you look life in the eyes
Witches come from all around to comfort and to hypnotize
The angel's as if all our fighting was for naught
And I can't imagine anything as promising as that
Oh no I can't imagine anything as promising as that
There'll be no down-pour in this desert
There'll be no sweet candy to calm this child
There'll be no jungle-gym to entertain the state I'm in
While my Eliza is still wild
Sleep Eliza – may you rest as sweetly as my love
Let the water fill you up
And drown in the future you'll have
Dream of everything you're going to
Become once you're well
Call upon the tradition of waking from a spell
People can be easier to love in retrospect
I am bound to you in blood
And secondly, in so much respect
You are so much braver than I'll ever hope to be
But I am stronger than you know, so you can speak to me
There'll be no down-pour in this desert
There'll be no sweet candy to calm this child
There'll be no jungle-gym to entertain the state I'm in
While my Eliza is still wild
