Heart Like a Levee

Oh, sweet May morning Yeah, lying in bed with nothing to say We'll pretend all we wanna Yeah, tomorrow I'll be on my way Sing me a river (sing me a river) Oh, go easy on me, I'm not doing too well Do you hate me, honey (hate me, honey) As much as I hate myself? Heart like a levee (heart like a levee) I swing for the mountains in double-time Is it too heavy, honey? (Is it too heavy, honey?) Did I carry my piece of the fire? Standing in the wake with the sky still changing What's it going to take Oh, to keep you missing this rambling rake with a heart of obsidian? Standing in the wake with the sky still changing Oh, sing me a river (sing me a river) I'm a peach tree jumper with rain in my shoes If you let me, honey (let me, honey) I'll set the world on fire for you Oh, sing me a summer (sing me a summer) Oh, that Cincinnati moon like a wheel in the sky Shows two roads, honey (two roads, honey) Tell me which one leads to mine? Yeah, sing, little sister (sing, little sister) Be patient with me when I don't have a rhyme Will you grieve me, honey? Did I give you a reason to try? Standing in the wake with the sky still changing What's it going to take, oh, to keep you from taking this so serious? I know the dead are raging Standing in the wake, yes I've seen the changes Yeah, heart like a levee (heart like a levee) I swing for the mountains in double-time Do you hear me running? Did I carry my piece of the fire?
