Lyrics P#1: She has a heart as clear as diamonds She has eyes as old as Rome She can swim between my islands Where my water's made of stone She can hold me like a baby And hush my demons to sleep And I know it drives her crazy She's no longer theirs to keep And she knows just how to heal me And she knows just how I break.
She has a heart as clear as diamonds She has eyes as old as Rome She can swim between my islands Where my water's made of stone She can hold me like a baby And hush my demons to sleep And I know it drives her crazy She's no longer theirs to keep And she knows just how to heal me And she knows just how I break And she knows not how to believe me It takes years to know a snake She has legs as brave as islands And she'll stand with me alone Though it pains within her body She'll cover mine if I get stoned
Lyrics P#2: But she knows not how to believe me it takes years to know a snake she has legs as brave as islands. And she'll stand with me alone though it pains within her body She'll cover mine if I get stoned
She can swim between my islands where my water's made of stone She can hold me like a baby and hush my demons to sleep And I know it drives her crazy, she's no longer theirs to keep And she knows just how to heal me And she knows just how I break ♥
I'm pretty sure this guy posting all of these has some sort of VIP connection to this stuff :) Must be leaks of something, as I've never heard these songs before either :-/ I'm happy he's posting it though!!! Cheers
This song was long before that. "9" era. It actually sounds even more like "Baby Sister" a song he wrote around the time of "O". Both BTHM and that are very Leonard Cohen influenced which is probably why you note the chord similarity.
Damien's music is stunning... I never want him to stop writing beautiful music...

This is heart-breakingly beautiful.

She has a heart as clear as diamonds
She has eyes as old as Rome
She can swim between my islands
Where my water's made of stone
She can hold me like a baby
And hush my demons to sleep
And I know it drives her crazy
She's no longer theirs to keep
And she knows just how to heal me
And she knows just how I break
And she knows not how to believe me
It takes years to know a snake
She has legs as brave as islands
And she'll stand with me alone
Though it pains within her body
She'll cover mine if I get stoned

wow good find my friend where are you gettin these songs?
of
Isn't there a studio version of this song?
That would be wonderful.
Where are you finding these songs good sir? I must know.
chords are similar to "back to her man" not sure which damien rice's songs came first.
This song was long before that. "9" era. It actually sounds even more like "Baby Sister" a song he wrote around the time of "O". Both BTHM and that are very Leonard Cohen influenced which is probably why you note the chord similarity.
If this is Damien posting these songs, please sir listen to our pleas... Make a B-side album... please!
@shellinarocks Glen Hansard isn't too bad at it either ;]
i'm pretty sure this guy posting these vids is damien rice ha.
haha, If I was him, i'd have a guitar on my knee - not a laptop!!
