Damien Jurado
Hands on the Table
[Verse 1]
I will always remember our hands on the table and I
I could not unlock from your stare
And though I've tried to untie from your anchor, I can't
I am no good at giving up
I am directing our movie, our play in my mind
A moment suspended in time that I keep on rewind
And the ink, it is bleeding through pages where I wrote down your name
And carefully planned our escape
I would pass you a key and pay off the judges to free you
If that's what it takes then why wait?
I am one cloud shy in your neon sky

[Chorus]
Do not go from my road
Do not go from my road

[Verse 2]
I was crippled and blurry the day I walked into your frame
I'm so focused now on your name
And my pages were fading from the days of exchanging my tune
On trains that I took home to you
When the signal broke, I spoke to you on paper
From the parking lots to our bed where you are not now

[Chorus]
Do not go from my road
Do not go from my road
[Outro]
Soon my moon will fall
Soon my moon
Soon my moon will fall
