Swear And Shake - Johnnie Lyrics

Johnnie, all your hundred songs
Learned them on the guitar
Played them in the mirror
Pretended they were mine
Johnnie, what a knack for words
Each one cuts me deeper
Strong enough to make you near when you're far away

Johnnie, is your suitcase tight?
You say goodbye to no one
Leave a mess of paper
Make way for the coast
Honey, all your bridges burned
Should you find your boots worn, I will patch your soles
If you swear you'll walk with me

Johnnie, I could be your queen
No more nights of long dreams
You could be the stronger man to sleep between these sheets
But never with your lips sewn shut
I can only do so much
Won't lift a finger 'til you show me where it hurts

Johnnie, is your suitcase tight?
You say goodbye to no one
Leave a mess of paper
And make way for the coast
Honey, all your bridges burned
Should you find your boots worn, I will patch your soles
If you swear you'll walk with me

It's the way I'm gonna love you
It's the way I'm gonna love you
It's the way I'm gonna love you
The only way I know to
And I'll lay my candid loving on the line
It's the way I'm gonna love you
