Here's the actual lyrics Lisa Hannigan sings:
I don't know what you smoke
or what countries you've been to
if you speak any other languages other than your own
but I'd like to meet you
I don't know if you drive
if you love the ground beneath you
I don't know if you write letters
or panic on the phone
I'd like to call you all the same,
if you want to, I am game.
I don't know if you can swim
or if the sea has any draw for you
if you're better in the morning
or when the sun goes down
I'd like to talk to you
I don't know if you can dance
if the thought ever occurred to you
if you eat what you've been given
or push it round your plate
I'd like to cook for you all the same,
I would want to, I am game.
If you walk my way I could keep my head
we could creep away
in the dark or maybe not,
we could shoot it down anyway.
I don't know if you read novels or the magazines
if you love the hand that feeds you
I assume that your heart's been bruised
I know I'd like to know you
You don't know if I can draw at all
or what records I am into
if I sleep like a spoon
or rarely at all
or maybe you would do?
maybe you would do
If you walk my way I will keep my head
we will feel our way through the dark
though I don't know you I think that I would do
I don't fall easy at all
Not at all, not at all, not at all, not at all
If you walk my way I will keep my head
we will feel our way through the dark
though I don't know you I think that I would do
I don't fall easy at all
Interesting to notice that the lyrics she sings are different in three or four places from the way she wrote it down here: www.lisahannigan.ie All rights for this song belong to Lisa Hannigan. We were inspired to make this because we really like the song and we hope others hear about Lisa Hannigan and check out her new album. The signs are inspired by Bob Dylan's classic "Subterranean Homesick Blues" …...more
