Ray LaMontagne – Hannah lyrics

I lost all of my vanity when I peered into the pool.
I lost all of my innocence when I fell in love with you.
I never knew a man could fall so far until I landed here -
Where all of my wounds, they turned into gold, when I kissed your hair.
Now come to me Hannah - Hannah won't you to come on to me?

And I'll lay down this bottle of wine, if you'll just be kind to me.

Ask her why she cries so loud, and she will not say a word.
Eyes like ice and hands that shake... She takes what she deserves,
To celebrate her emptiness in a cold and lonely room.
Sweep the floors with your long flowered dress if you cannot find a broom
Now come to me Hannah - Hannah won't you come on to me?

And I'll lay down this bottle of wine, if you'll just be kind to me.

She's got hair that flows right down, right down to the backs of her knees.
Her Papa he was a preaching man, and the Lord is hard to please,
So she comes down from the Ozark hills to these very streets to roam,
With a banjo, and a bible, and a fine tooth comb.
Now come to me Hannah - Hannah won't you come on to me?

And I'll lay down this bottle of wine if you just be kind to me.

I'd walk one mile on this broken glass, to fall down at your feet.
Mmmmmm, Hannah... You're the queen of the street.

I climb the tree with my Hannahlee, my intentions they were pure.
Oh the breeze did whip, and I lost my grip, and I tumbled towards the earth.
Where you never would guess who it was that stood below - His name I will never tell.
But His eyes were clear,
And His arms were strong,
And He caught me as I fell/
Now come to me Hannah - Hannah won't you come on to me?

I'll lay down this bottle of wine, if you'd just be kind to me.

Now I'd walk one mile on this broken glass, to fall down at your feet.
Mmmmmm, Hannah you're the queen of the street.
The queen of the street.
