A Million Holes In Heaven (Million) - Amy Cook

A Million Holes - Amy Cook
Couldn't find it on youtube, so I put it here.

Lyrics:
In the desert, outside Marfa,
We went flying down that highway.
I tried to memorize the way that you looked,
You were clutching a tall boy.
The cold gin was sweating clear through that worn-out paper sack.
I got to thinking that maybe once you come this way you can never go back.

And the sky above us is impossibly black,
As we lie down in the desert on our backs.
'Whats that?' youd say about those stars as you'd wake me from my dreaming.
'Its like a million holes in heaven.'

Through the speakers, in that old truck,
AM radio is playing,
We sing along with the windows rolled down
'Til the singing turns to swaying.
The thunder storm comes rolling in,
There's a halo of lightning,
Reminding you of everyone youve ever loved,
That exploding silver lining.

And the sky above us is impossibly cracked,
As we stand out on the front porch, watching the bolts cut the black.
'Whats that?' youd say to me love, as wed start out at that lighting.
'There are a million holes in heaven.'

As I stare out at the city, the streetlights stole the stars,
The crickets in the wind were taken by the sound of cars,
As I lie in my apartment and I wonder where you are.
There are a million holes in my heart.

You will drink the moonshine and I will drown in sunshine
You will drink the moonshine and Ill drown in the sunshine
Youll be drinking moonshine and Ill be drowning in the sunshine
Yeah
You will drink the moonshine and I'll drown in the sunshine
Youll be drinking moonshine and Ill be drowning in the sunshine
And I just hope youll think of me sometimes.
I hope youll think of me sometimes.
Come on and drink the moonshine...

I just searched this song to listen to it on youtube... and it was posted by you!! Wow... I especially like her song fireflies...

[Antidrugged]

Whahahaha, I love that song too.

And I already told you you've got a great music taste, haha.

The words aren't "outside Norfolk." It's "outside Marfa." 

As in Marfa Texas. That's where Amy is in the Halfaway video.

[Antidrugged]

Woops, sorry. I'll change it right away. Thanks for the heads up!
