Madeleine Peyroux - Damn The Circumstances Lyrics
My heart is like a hand-me-down made soft by older brothers
My body's like my father's house, the sin of generations
Damn the circumstances
Life is hard enough
Faith is good enough
You shook the ground beneath my feet, my hopes turned into water
The house came crashing down on me in the early morning hours
Damn the circumstances
Life is hard enough
Damn the bones that rattle
Faith is good enough
Where all good will has gone and the dreams we had went bust
Damn the circumstances
Life is hard enough
Damn the bones that rattle
Faith is good enough

My heart is like a hand me down
Made soft by older brothers
My body is like my father's house
The sin of generations
Damn the circumstances
Life is hard enough
Damn the bones that rattle
Faith is good enough
You shook the ground beneath my feet
My hopes turned into water
The house came crashing down on me
In the early morning hours
Damn the circumstances
Life is hard enough
Damn the bones that rattle
Faith is good enough
Now the lines are drawn
and we sleep in rags at dust
where all good will is gone
and the dreams we had went bust
Damn the circumstances
Life is hard enough
Damn the bones that rattle
Faith is good enough
Great tune, so relaxing. She's great. So great to hear some good music instead of all that computer crap they're producing these days, and the girls can't sing a stitch. I love Madeleine a lot!
