Lyrics Damien Rice

Damien Rice

Cannonball

1. There’s still a little bit of your taste

in my mouth.

There’s still a little bit of you laced

with my doubt.

It’s still a little hard to say

what's going on.

2. There’s still a little bit of your ghost

your witness.

There’s still a little bit of your face

I haven't kissed.

You step a little closer each day

that I can’t say what's going on.

R: Stones taught me to fly.

Love taught me to lie.

Life, it taught me to die.

So it's not hard to fall,

when you float like a cannonball.

3. There’s still a little bit of your song

in my ear.

There’s still a little bit of your words

I long to hear.

You step a little closer to me

so close that I can't see what's going on.

R: Stones taught me to fly.

Love, it taught me to lie.

Life taught me to die.

So it's not hard to fall,

when you float like a cannon.

R: Stones taught me to fly.

Love taught me to cry.

So come on courage.

Teach me to be shy,

'cause it's not hard to fall.

And I don't wanna scare her

It's not hard to fall

And I don't wanna lose

It's not hard to grow

when you know that you just don't know
