Esmee By the River - Danny Schmidt[00:00:00]
Esmee by the river a face like a blue jay[00:00:13]
A kiss for a shiver was a pretty brave trade[00:00:16]
Knowing too little but hands know their own way[00:00:19]
And hoping that the river might just purr a bit more[00:00:23]
Hoping that the river might just purr some more[00:00:26]
Now its been most a year and i still sometimes wonder[00:00:30]
Did i step too far or run too soon[00:00:33]
Til you chased both our fears off with rose-petal thunder[00:00:36]
And lit up the river with a heart-sized moon[00:00:40]
Esmee by the river a face like a rainbow[00:00:56]
Butterflies growling but what does the gut know[00:00:59]
Bourboned and prowling for faces or footholds[00:01:03]
But i could see through your eyes like the storm-pane was gone[00:01:07]
I could see through your eyes like the storm-panes gone[00:01:10]
And i knew i was moved that you stood so open[00:01:14]
And i saw i was drawn to peek inside[00:01:17]
Was the glass so pure or the window broken[00:01:20]
But the river reached up and it carried me on[00:01:24]
Esmee by the river a face like a memory[00:01:40]
Patient and pissed like a black mans song[00:01:44]
I carved you a poem from rosewood and ebony[00:01:47]
And threw it to the river to carry along[00:01:51]
I hope when she brings it all slinky and sly[00:01:54]
That youll slide on in it and taste of its verse[00:01:57]
You ask will i write you and of course the reply[00:02:01]
Is that rivers of honey they sing honey of course[00:02:04]
Rivers of honey they sing honey of course[00:02:08]
Rivers of honey they sing honey[00:02:12]
