Dry the River - History Book (Radio FM4 Acoustic Session)

[@sophsay]

I don't think there are any words that can truly describe how utterly perfect this is.

[@MyEyesOpenForAMoment]

Seriously, you gotta love Pete´s voice! It sounds so fragile... brilliant!

[@02heroine]

There's such emotional intensity in this performance. I love it.

[@sarahp9989]

The most beautiful song I've ever heard

[@andrewclark6419]

that key change and ending! gets me every time. So much going on. Whenever I'm in need of some harmonies I always stick these boys on. What a tune. What an album.

[@engymaster]

The chorus to this song is as good as any in recent memory... love this band to bits.

[@PinkAndCoffee]

Lyrics Share Like faithful oxen through the chalk, With dragging tails of history walk. Soon confuse the compass and the cross. Carefully and cursively we fill our traveling diaries with loss. Beneath an angry Bible flood, Did you and I first learn to love. In my father's car we came to know. And shivered in our painted clothes and paired like every animal below. As heavy as a history book can be, I will carry it with me, oh Lord. And maybe when the bitterness has gone, There'll be sweetness on our tongues once more. Barefoot in a rowing boat, You lose your shoes and freeze your toes. And say I wear my sorrow like a crown. And throw your arms around my head, and see it there in gold and red and brown. As heavy as a history book can be, I will carry it with me, oh Lord. And maybe when the bitterness has gone, There'll be sweetness on our tongues once more. We'll soon forget our parents' names, Like dogs will drive the wolves away. And weep with fingertips opposed, Like a church where nobody congregates. But sweetness sings in the pasture, We throw ourselves on the mercy of the earth. If sand and salt have the answer, Then the act itself will be louder than the word. And I'll be on your side.

Got to be the closest to Jeff Buckley's voice anyone's come in a while.
