Desdemona/the Departing Dance Lyrics - Singles - Aaron Tinjum And The Tangents

[First Verse] 

Desdemona 

Don't you notice? 

The world keeps spinning 

And it's turning us inside out 

[Second Verse] 

Desdemona 

Don't you know it? 

We'll climb every mountain 

Just to turn around and take the fall 

Into the clouds 

[Chorus] 

[Third Verse] 

Desdemona 

Don't let it control ya 

Set your own pace 

And give what you got in the tank 

[Fourth Verse] 

Desdemona 

Don't let him fool ya 

Your beauty is a prison 

And the mind can be a miserable place 

Filled with hate 

[Chorus] 

[Bridge] 

And in this world of tumbleweeds 

Dragonflies and willow trees 

The great divide of our histories 

The wars that we have known 

The angels still sing on high 

Under moonlight 

The cowboy rides 

The cosmos breathes a quiet sigh 

And we are on our own 

We're all alone 

[Fifth Verse] 

So Desdemona 

I know you know that 

But love can throw daggers 

And liars can pretend to be saints 

It undermines our faith 

[Outro]
