Eid Ma Clack Shaw Songtext

von Bill Callahan

Working through death's pain

Last night I swear I felt your touch
Gentle and warm
The hair stood on my arms
How?
How?
How?

Oh show me the way, show me the way, show me the way
To shake a memory
Show me the way, show me the way, show me the way
To shake a memory

I flipped my forelock, I twitched my withers, I reared and bucked
I could not put my rider aground
All these fine memories are fuckin' me down

I dreamed it was a dream that you were gone
I woke up feeling so ripped by reality
Yeah, love is the king of the beasts
And when it gets hungry it must kill to eat
Yeah, love is the king of the beasts
A lion walking down city streets

I fell back asleep some time later on
And I dreamed the perfect song
It held all the answers, like hands laid on
I woke halfway and scribbled it down
And in the morning what I wrote I read
It was hard to read at first but here's what it said

Eid ma clack shaw
Zupoven del ba
Mertepy ven seinur
Cofally ragdah

Eid ma clack shaw
Zupoven del ba
Mertepy ven seinur
Cofally ragdah

Oh show me the way, show me the way, show me the way
To shake a memory
Show me the way, show me the way, show me the way
To shake a memory

Eid ma clack shaw
Zupoven del ba
Mertepy ven seinur
Cofally ragdah

Oh show me the way, show me the way, show me the way
To shake a memory
Show me the way, show me the way, show me the way
To shake a memory
