Lyrics Damien Jurado

Damien Jurado

Lion Tamer

We said goodbye a year ago

We sat within the farmhouse

So you know, don't you?

I went to the house alone

The power out, no telephone

You know, you'll know

The gun in the drawer

The long distance call

A story to tell

Patience drifts into the sound

You are nothing to me now

I made time to figure out

Save us now before we drown

Hello, goodbye I said last we met

I'll be easy to forget

You know, you'll know

An empty beer, the sealing broke

The saddest song we ever wrote

You'll know, don't you?

It's all for the best

It's not what it seems

The gun in the drawer

The long distance call

A story to tell

Patience drifts into the sound

You are nothing to me now

I made time to figure out

Save us now before we drown
