Lyrics to Cruel And Beautiful World

Go ahead and close the door. I'll stand outside.
A little bird just told me. So, it's time to start over again.
So, I'll man up and take this boat far away from these shores and I'll reach behind and find my terrible cure.

'Cause it's a cruel and beautiful world and I got my girl and if it seems like we're falling behind,
we're just slippin' and tuggin' from the mouths of our mind.

I buried a treasure far off near the desert. I'm trying to find my way there.
Its been too long since I've been myself and my eyes can't see anymore but there's a song inside this heart of mine
and I'd like to sing it to you 'cause there's an earthquake shakin' inside my country, now what am I gonna do?

'Cause it's a cruel and beautiful world and I got my girl and if it seems like we're falling behind,
we're just slippin' and tuggin' from the mouths of our mind.

'Cause it's a cruel and beautiful world and I got my girl and if it seems like we're falling behind,
we're just slippin' and tuggin' from the mouths of our mind.



My Morning Jacket - "First Light" Lyrics

First light tonight,
First light tomorrow,
First light this morning,
First light this evening,
First light tonight.

Been looking back,
Down through the ages;
First I was an ancient,
Then I was an infant,
Now I am alive.

Been holdin' out,
Searchin' for something,
Something to carry
Me over the sunset,
To dawn's early lights.

First light tonight,
First light tomorrow,
First light this evening,
First light this morning,
First light tonight.

Then I found it
I did it, finally oh
My search it was over
I prayed till was gone
My all in light
I been there...

Still holdin' on

First light tonight,
First light tomorrow,
First light this morning,
First light this evening,
First light tonight.

First light tonight,
First light tomorrow,
First light this evening,
First light this morning,
First light tonight.
