Favourite Joanna Newsom lyrics
I have a lot and from what I've seen on the 'moments that make you shiver thread' other people think she's awesome too. So here we are. I can only write the ones from Ys because if I tried to do Milk Eyed Mender and Have One on Me this would be the longest post ever. Here goes...
"The lines are fading in my kingdom
(though I have never known a way to border them in);
so the muddy mouths of baboons and sows and the grouse and the horse and the hen
grope at the gate of the looming lake that was once a tidy pen..."
"Darling we will be fine; but what was yours and mine
appears to me a sandcastle that the gibbering wave takes."
"The cities we passed were a flickering wasteland,
but his hand in my hand made them hale and harmless"
"Can you hear me? Will you listen?
Don't come near me, don't go missing.
And in the lissome light of evening
Help me Cosmia, I'm grieving."
What are yours?
