love song
Story behind the song
person comments on difficulties of life and his desire hear a friend's voice to find peace of mind
Lyrics
emily won't you please tell me a story
i'm needing some peace of mind tonight
take me to the bayou in baton rouge
to sigh and hear you play that tune
its my tune
take the light away
give me a chance to change
this frame of mind
lord the walls too high
swimming upstream
with all the things that i do
and i'm praying lord
how much i paying for you?
chorus
cashing sunsets
twisting up a letter
held my breath so long
it made me blind
things up here appear to keep
those spirits dancing round
but how long has it been
since my feet touched the ground?
chorus
