Lyrics

Mountain Voices

A New Kind Of Assassin - Album cover (front)
Best of James Rays Performance and Gangwar - 2CD album cover (front)

Got a warm automatic heading in the waste
A heart like an angel but a stranger for a face
She got a head full of tears and a head full of song
But you're not going to sing them til your heroine comes along

Here comes that girl again
Here comes that girl again
All dressed in tears again
Here comes that girl

Got a white Spanish cadillac burning up your heart
Hot blooded lioness eatin' at your soul
Cold blooded viper chewin' at your bones
and a black and white assassin that nobody knows

Here comes that girl again
Here comes that girl again
All dressed in tears again
Here comes that girl

There's love for the taking on a dark desert day
if you'd only let me take you away
I'd take you from the desert (take my hand) like the sand from your eyes
(Step up) Step up child, I'll teach you to fly

Just take my hand girl
I'll take your tears girl
Just take my hand girl
Step up child

[Spoken] Fallen asleep in the back of the car
You know your next breath is your last

You call this paradise
You call these mountains
We call this poverty
We call these hills

Mountain voices, mountain days
All lost and broken in an empty way
Some kind of feeling left unspoken
In a kind of world left for dead
No need for roses either
All those things are sin

Here comes that girl again               No memories
Here comes that girl again Hold the bells
All dressed in tears again She lies in waiting
Here comes that girl


You call this paradise Just take my hand girl
You call these mountains               Just take my hand girl
We call this poverty I'll take your tears girl
We call these hills Step aside


I love you
