Want Too Much Lyrics - Joe Henry

I want too much, and I want you. 

When I hope I woke, 

I want too much. 

When you try, to save yourself, 

And I hope you don't, 

I want too much. 

In dreams I fly, above the barn, 

With goats and violins, 

I want too much 

The palest girl, raises her arms, 

Waving from the fence, 

I want too much 

Even now, even now, even now, 

I want no more, and I want too much. 

I want the lost, forgotten miles 

To swallow up your street, 

I want too much 

Raining smoke and dandelions, 

And silver at my feet, I want too much. 

But I want the phantom at the door, 

To put his hand in mine, 

I want too much 

I want you to pull me down, 

And cover me with vines, 

I want too much. 

Even now, even now, even now, 

I want no more, and I want too much. 

I want too much. 

Shh... 

Your kiss left me a bloodied mess, 

And a trail behind, 

I want too much. 

If you fall, then I confess, 

Better you this time, 

I want too much. 

And even now, even now, even now, 

I want no more, I want no more, 

And even now, even now, 

I want no more, and I want too much. 

I want too much. 

I want too much. 

I want too much.
