Goose Eggs Lyrics


If I had the space of half a day
I'm ashamed of half the things I say
I'm ashamed to have turned out this way
Well I desire to make amendsBut it don't make no difference now
And no one's listening anyhow
And lists of sins and a solemn vow
Can't make you any friendsThere's an old trick played when the light and the wine
Conspire to make me think I'm fine
I'm not but I have got half a mind
To maybe get there yetWhen the sky goes pink in Paris, FranceDo you think of the girl who used to dance
When you'd frame her moving within your hands
Saying this I won't forgetWhat happened to the man you were
When you loved somebody before her
Did you die or does that man endure
Somewhere far away?Our lives come easy and our lives come hard
And we carry them like a pack of cards
Some we don't use but we don't discard
And we keep for a rainy day

Joanna Newsom (born January 18, 1982) started taking piano lessons at a very early age and played for a couple of years, but switched to the harp at seven. Her approach to the harp, from the percussive aspects of her playing to her chord changes, was also influenced by West African and Venezuelan harp music, which she began studying at a folk music camp she attended in her early teens. At the same time, she also listened to more vocal-based folk, punk, and jazz like Karen Dalton, Texas Gladden, Patti Smith, and Billie Holiday.
