lyrics

And you say it kisses
And I say it kicks
This city's a drumbeat
We dance for the fix

Climb sky-scraping summits
And we ought to know
Too high to be holdin'
Too hard to let go

Lord knows
We've waited long enough
While all them gurus
Called our bluff
Got mountains
Of that self-help stuff
But, Suzanne
My bones still ache me

The bigger the building
Can block out the sun
Get to shinin' a light
Over everyone

The headache
The heartbreak
The hullabaloo
But our love must be central
To all that we do

Cheerleaders
Of the masquerade
We take a bitter pill
With a sweet champagne
And pray those days
Roll round again
Suzanne, old bones do ache me

Suzanne, I'm looking for something I lost
Spare me my bones

And we all burn out
On the comets coattail
The brightest of stars
Are not ours to name
And you say it kisses
And I say it kicks

Lord knows
We've waited long enough
(We waited long enough, believe me)
While all them gurus
Called our bluff
(Seems everyone's an expert, lately)
Got mountains
Of that self-help stuff
(We come, we go, we're gone)
But, Suzanne
My bones still ache me

Cheerleaders
Of the masquerade
(And all the masks they wear are weighin')
We take a bitter pill
With a sweet champagne
(And all the songs we sang are playin')
And pray those days
Roll round again
(Get born, grow old, rock on!)
Suzanne, old bones do ache me

the restless dreams of youth
by Tamar Berk

supported by 4 fans who also own “Old Bones”

Shadow Clues was the song the introduced me to Tamar, but Suitcase and Gun is the perfect ending track for an album. Even more so, if you listen to that and automatically go in Start At The End, it feels like a bridge into it. Like going from one stage of life and starting over, only for new situations to arise. jerryslaughter
