The Night & The Liquor

Elvis Perkins

And now the night and the liquor wear off
I see your sister more clear
Now that the sun has warmed the sky

Won't you sleep, my lady
Go to sleep baby
No I can't sleep now, baby

It's true, I loved her then, yes
And you deserve far better than this mess
It's true, I loved her then, forever
But now it's you that I love always loved never

Now the night and the liquor coming on
I hardly see your sister
Now that the stars own the sky

Won't you come back, lady
No, I won't come back, baby
For I love rivers lately
