lyrics

Down For So Long (Bb harp, 3rd pos)

Ice can burn your skin like fire, don’t you know?
Like the gentle kiss you gave me after putting me down
By the time I caught the meaning you were gone
And I couldn’t tell you that I was freezing, couldn’t tell you that I was freezing
I’ve been standing; I’ve been coming down for so long
I’ve been a fool but I just can’t get enough.

(I’ve) tried so hard to blame it on the man I used to be
Sho’nuff ain’t good, but it sure don’t mean a thing
Someone told me last night I looked like a bear trapped in a cage
I said I’d rather be a worm in my own hole; yeah I’d rather be a worm in my own hole
I’ve been standing; I’ve been coming down for so long
I’ve been a fool but I just can’t get enough.
