Suit of Lights Songtext

von Alejandro Escovedo

Brought you diamonds
Brought you rain
Brought you disappointment
Broken window panes
Brought you silk
Brought you jade
A bucket of blood in every note i played

Who am I
When you look at me
Sailor with no compass lost at sea
Cowboy who can't ride anymore
A dancer with no shoes no floor
A baseball loving matador

Who am I when you look at me
Through this prism of possibilities
I see you do you see me
In a suit of lights
Shining in the rain

Watched you shower
Watched you bathe
Put everything i have in every kiss we made
Brought you silk
Brought you jade
A bucket of blood in every note i played

Who am I
When you look at me
Shadow dancing dervish
Lost at sea
A valentine who is waiting to be found
Sentimental man from the south
A father, lover, sister, brother

Who am I
When you look at me
Through this prism of possibilities

I see you do you see me
In a suit of lights
Shining in the rain

In a suit of lights
Shining in the rain

In a suit of lights

In a suit of lights
Shining in the rain

In a suit of lights
