The Man I Keep Hid Lyrics - Blood From Stars - Joe Henry

Nobody knows the man that I keep hid 

Nobody knows the man that I keep hid 

He's raised my face like a pirate's flag 

Of any nations tattered rag 

Nobody knows the man that I keep hid 

Somebody used my mouth and laughed out loud 

Somebody used my mouth and laughed out loud 

Spoken ways that were strange to you 

Whispered things that even money won't do 

Nobody knows the man that I keep hid 

Something startled you late last night 

Something startled you late last night 

A ghost from my dream leaning paon 

Moving you left a vapor trail 

Nobody knows the man that I keep hid 

You say you've changed but still you won't 

I say I've changed and prove I don't 

Somebody made my heart a silver spoon 

Somebody made my heart a silver spoon 

That eats away at love and pride 

Like hunger down a mountainside 

Nobody knows the man that I keep hid 

Nobody knows the man that I keep hid
