Testo Your Heart's a Big Tent - Willi Carlisle
Testo della canzone Your Heart's a Big Tent (Willi Carlisle), tratta dall'album Peculiar, Missouri
This mornin' a miracle happened as promised
The risin' of the world's closest star
And the almanacs warned us that the fast coming weather
Might blow us away like dandelion flowers
And if I had a nickel
For every time I've taken shelter
From the storm alone and naked in my bedsheets
I could pay off all my loans
Buy some nicer clothes
Find a job that didn't always scare me
But I've been trying not to think before my third cup of coffee
Ah, the heart's a big tent
Gotta let everybody in
Doesn't matter who they are
If they do right or where they've been
Everybody gets in
I think I know a secret, still not really sure
Somewhere between I'm livin' and I believe I can fly
What's up's I saw the devil in a used bookstore
He was rippin' up and spittin' on Catcher in the Rye
And I'm coming to myself
Like a man finding religion
Am I baptized, drowned, or washed in the blood
If life's an open field
I'd like to plant a garden
And get ready for the fire and the flood
I need a theory of all love
Like the heart's a big tent
Gotta let everybody in
Doesn't matter who they are
If they do right or where they've been
Everybody gets in
My conclusion's not a great one, I'll leave that to the smarter ones
The soul is an idiot, it doesn't care why
Whatever you do with it, think it's a pretty simple one
Just sing until you love yourself and love until you die
I've seen the trees
Like pillars full of blood
Chlorophyllic laughing swaying in their glory
Seen the sparrows in the air
Alight on branches there
And there's no way that they're afraid of being thirty
If I can't live clean then I'd better love dirty
'Cause the hearts a big tent
Gotta let everybody in
Doesn't matter who they are
If they do right or where they've been
Everybody gets in
This morning a miracle happened as promised
The risin' of the world's closest star
