Two Dollar Movies

from Where Will We Go by Nature & Madness

/

lyrics

i've lost my longing in crystal cathedrals
i've heard my name called in the wind
i've given money to door to door salesmen
but i've never asked where they've been
my momma raised me on two dollar movies
dug out like gold in the dirt
i asked her to shoot straight
she told me "you're crazy son,
singing ain't all that you're worth."

don't worry about saving these songs
we'll be long gone before they ring true
but hold your heart heavy
and sing your lungs strong
just in case i turn out to be wrong

clear window panes on crystal cathedrals
lead into inspired views
fingers on ivory send sad songbirds o'er me
and aged me crying in pews
now i still believe in two dollar movies
i patiently wait at your door
i am peddling for mercy
lord, please forgive
pennies for a young troubadour

don't worry about saving these songs
we'll be long gone before they ring true
but hold your heart heavy
and sing your lungs strong
just in case i turn out to be wrong

the silence that fell was too precious to leave
old arkansas, cathedrals serene
selling your heart is a slow misery
it's the freedom that makes you believe

don't worry about saving these songs
we'll be long gone before they ring true
but hold your heart heavy
and sing your lungs strong
just in case i turn out to be wrong
