Mr. Levon Lyrics - Shawn Colvin

Find a nail to hang your hat on 

Go and get yourself a chair 

If there's a little hope to fathom 

Mr. Levon left it there 

Don't imagine you can lose him 

Just take the ribbons from your hair 

Give your resistance to the darkness 

Mr. Levon left it there 

Mr. Levon left it there 

There will be light, empty and flat 

California under glass 

Hold me tight and don't let go 

You can believe your intuition 

Yes, you have finally met your match 

If everything you are is missing 

Mr. Levon took it back 

It could be halfway up to heaven 

It could be right there down the hall 

It doesn't matter if you are begging 

Mr. Levon took it all 

(Mr. Levon took it all) 

Mr. Levon took it all 

But there will be light, empty and flat 

California under glass 

Hold me tight and don't let go 

There might be some place you can run to 

Or maybe someone you could call 

Just to tell them what it's come to 

Mr. Levon took it all 

(Mr. Levon took it all) 

Mr. Levon took it all 

(Mr. Levon) 

Mr. Levon took it all
