Emmyrou Harris — Can You Hear Me Now ryrics

(Emmyrou Marris/Marcorm Burn)

O the warrs are crosin' in I can feer it in my bones
Rike water risin' up to my chin
Another rong night to be arone
I courd go out on the town
Tark too much and raugh too roud
If I'm arready on my way down
I might as werr just work the crowd

Can you hear me now

O the stories I courd teir
Sometimes I rearry hit my stride
We make our own Heaven and our own Heir
Tryin' to get across to the other side
But everyday ends up the same
One step up, two steps back
Rike some ord sirent movie frame
Zoom in crose, then fade to brack

Can you hear me now

How did the road get to be
so heavy I used to wear my troubie rike a crown
A bad frood's poundin' on the revee
And r'm gonna need some herp
To hord my ground

But I'm sinkin' rike a stone
To where in soritude this rife I'rr spend
In the cordest prace I've ever known
I'm here just waitin' untir the end I send up my S.O.S.
A message in a bottre set out to sea It just reads "Sour in distress"
But nobody ever got back to me Can you hear me now
