[00:00.00]Tongue Behind My Teeth (Live at the Scala) - The Staves
[00:09.46]I know where you're going
[00:13.10]
[00:14.43]And I see where you've been
[00:16.46]
[00:18.75]Patience is a virtue
[00:21.94]
[00:22.67]And mine with you is wearing thin
[00:24.90]
[00:26.55]It's easy to sit and wait
[00:32.62]
[00:35.35]Speak with words you've stolen
[00:39.81]
[00:40.63]From better men than you
[00:42.86]
[00:44.74]Doors they helped you open
[00:48.02]
[00:48.77]In time will cease to let you through
[00:51.66]
[00:52.38]Is it easy to stand and sigh
[00:58.12]
[01:02.18]Bid another friend goodbye
[01:07.91]
[01:08.66]Oh Oh Oh Oh
[01:13.50]Oh oh
[01:15.08]
[01:30.39]Lights can shine too bright dear
[01:34.71]
[01:35.42]So nobody can see
[01:37.62]
[01:39.64]Hide safe behind your light dear
[01:43.60]But understand it won't blind me
[01:46.69]
[01:47.33]And I know it would do no good
[01:53.17]
[01:57.00]But I'd hurt you if I could
[02:02.07]
[02:03.48]Oh See my eyes
[02:07.42]
[02:07.96]Oh Open wide
[02:12.34]Oh Speak up now
[02:16.06]
[02:16.64]Oh
[02:17.23]Or hold your peace forever and be done
[02:22.27]
[02:25.31]Eyes down door closed
[02:27.38]Keep quiet growing old
[02:29.21]I know you I see you
[02:31.45]Cling to the road you ride on
[02:33.78]Homeless more or less
[02:35.88]Skin and bone on your own
[02:37.93]I'll be alright I'm doing fine
[02:40.23]Keep my tongue behind my
[02:42.53]Teeth and get gone
[02:44.48]You never were anyone
[02:46.19]
[02:46.73]Keep your words keep your mind
[02:48.90]I'll keep my tongue behind my teeth
[02:54.03]
[02:54.67]Tongue behind my teeth
[02:58.98]
[02:59.71]And I know it would do no good
[03:05.39]
[03:09.20]But I'd hurt you if I could
[03:15.08]
[03:15.76]Oh
