Laura Veirs - Black Gold Blues Lyrics

Artist: Laura Veirs

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: Folk

  • Songwriters: Laura Pauline Veirs

Bird of prey gonna float away
To a feather cloud formation
I'm gonna dig for pretty and strange
Gonna open me up, a black gold vein

Arrow on fire, flash the night
Gonna fade away to the trees and caves
Salt-salt lamp, romance the spark
And you'll shine, shine, shine up the wild deep dark

A sliver crack of light is all you need to see
A sliver crack of light is all you need to see

Ten black stars at my windowpane
That's ten pretty stars circle in my veins
Old barbed wire gonna fight and sting
Just ten little stars gonna make me sing

A sliver crack of light is all you need to see
A sliver crack of light is all you need to see
A sliver crack of light is all you need to see
A sliver crack of light is all you need to see

A sliver crack of light is all you need to see
A sliver crack of light is all you need to see
A sliver crack of light is all you need to see
A sliver crack of light is all you need to see
Is all you need to see, is all you need to see, to see
