J.B Sketches for My Sweetheart the Drunk 1998

Time takes care of the wound, so I can believe.
You had so much to give, you thought I couldnt see.
Gifts for boot heels to crush, promises deceived
I had to send it away to bring us back again.
Our eyes and bodies brighten silent waters, deep.
Your precious daughter in the other room, asleep.
A kiss goodnight from every stranger that I meet.
I had to send it away to bring us back again.
Morning theft. unpretender left, ungraceful.
True self is what brought you here, to me.
A place where we can accept this love.
Friendship battered down by useless history,
Unexamined failure.
What am I still to you?
Some thief who stole from you?
Or some fool drama queen whose chances were few?
That brings us to who we need,
A place where we can save
A heart that beats as both siphon and reservoir.
Youre a woman, Im a calf.
Youre a window, Im a knife.
We come together making chance into starlight.
Meet me tomorrow night, or any day you want.
I have no right to wonder just how, or when.
You know the meaning fits. theres no relief in this.
I miss my beautiful friend.
I have to send it away to bring her back again.

  • One of my favourite Buckley songs...

  • from your own lyrics my dear Jeff

    "you had so much to give"...

  • Strangely, this might sound wierd but my life changed when I first heard Jeff all those years ago and when he drowned some of my hopes and dreams drowned as well. I love what he did for the world.

  • Fuckin why, Jeff? Amazing.

  • One of my favorites of an artist with a rare gift--voice, energy, spirit--the simplicity of the arrangement, lyrcis and sincerity of his voice here seem to capture the softness, depth and

    purity of a man on a great journey towards wholeness ......that we sadly lost.

  • "Unexamined failure" : covers many relationships.

  • you're welcome!

  • Thank you!

  • to me Morning Thet is about loving and losing someon very close to you and hoping them the best. It's about being hurt and learning and growing from it.

    Well that is what I think.

  • i dont think i understood hes lyrics i feel crippled...:(
