Tallest Man On Earth, The - The Drying Of The Lawns Lyrics






She said I cannot tell you why, she said I'm in a rush
There are softer dreams for you to think about now love
Things that you have seen this night that run by that the river's flow
I can use you if you're in the flame, I'm a growin' old

And no this is not the summer dream she said
It's just the drying of the lawns I want to leave out there

Well I've said I've sailed the frozen corners of the dark Atlantic Sea
And I drifted on the waves and the mirage beneath
And never have I felt such numb and pointless searchin' true
As when I set my eyes and torched the plans on the mark of you

And no this is not the summer dream she said
It's just the drying of the lawns I want to leave out there

She said you follow me like sheep that think this king could do some harm
But I tell you boy I'm frightened still with a sister's heart
I set my eyes upon the shore whenever you wake up
I'm leavin' because you don't feel what you're dreamin' of

And no this is not the summer dream she said
It's just the drying of the lawns I want to leave out there

But I will stand down in the hallway with no thought to leave the set
Of a movie I will sure as hell not end just yet
If evenings are for romance then this mornin' is for us
It will never ran and our last dream will leave this house

And no this is not the summer dream I said
It's just the drying of the lawns that want to leave us here
Oh it's the drying of the lawns that want to leave us here

  1. m.... ....

    I wish i can hear his voice for the first time again.

  2. R.... ....

    unbelievable

  3. D.... D....

    how can u dislike this? no, seriously fucking how!

  4. M.... H....

    '...I'm leavin' cause you don't feel what you're dreamin' of ' ---> So perfect.

  5. S.... B....

    This man is definitely a genius

  6. R.... R....

    Still of the opinion that this is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard.

  7. W.... ....

    The Most Gruff Yelling Man on Earth

  8. m.... ....

    Good song Dakotaz

    m.... ....

    Dakotaz brought me here, AWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

  9. k.... ....

    Mine was "The Dreamer", was blown away...

  10. d.... ....

    Neil Young? Not Bob Dylan? i think he sounds insanely similar to bob

  11. R.... R....

    Unreal playing here. Normal TMOE brilliance and beauty.

  12. s.... m....

    thats exactly what im saying ya tard xD

  13. G.... ....

    yeah, his voice is rough but that plays well with his music. it's called DIVERSITY. All singers have different kinds of voices. You want no singers to have rough voices? It's a style

    G.... ....

    Guy no one said anything about his voice...? Idk I think it’s perfect

  14. s.... m....

    hes a fantastic singer to you. i think he is too. im also open-minded enough to let other people have there own opinions, which may be different from mine. his voice is pretty damn rough, you have to admit. its still great though. some people might not like it. stop telling people what they can and cant like.

  15. G.... ....

    he's a fantastic singer.. are you kidding me? Fuck you're stupid.

  16. R.... P....

    He's the tallest man in my heart.

  17. A.... G....

    Reminds me of Neil Young a little bit...very lyrical voice, soft and poignant lyricism. Anyone agree?

  18. t.... ....

    Just back for my bi-hourly dose :p

  19. s.... ....

    Did you at least get a cab fare?

  20. J.... S....

    The gangnam style topcomment doesn't work here...

  21. M.... E....

    just back for my daily dose :)

  22. s.... m....

    not really. his voice is rough, incredibly rough. if you can get by that fact, its beautiful. if you cant, it probably isnt very good to you. problem?

  23. Z.... E....

    What is the right word?

  24. B.... ....

    I love how it's so minimalistic yet so complex at the same time.

  25. b.... ....

    beauty bricks

  26. m.... w....

    sveriges stolthet

  27. E.... L....

    I came and swallowed..

  28. d.... m....

    i shit beauty

  29. M.... F....

    That Intro...

  30. t.... ....

    For some reason this was the song I most connected to when I was listening to the album. Unlike @EpicNoodle1, I think the vocals are the best part. Anyway, a new album comes out in June and I'm terribly excited.

  31. m.... ....

    Tolerate?

    wrong word asshat

  32. D.... ....

    Time to hunt those two fuckers down.

  33. Z.... E....

    The tallest man on earth is really really good.

    If you can tolerate his voice, its not for everyone.

  34. k.... j....

    @tkd4life6406 That'll dry your garment lawns. . . . eventually.

  35. S.... F....

    I wish I was "the tallest man on earth"

  36. W.... K....

    Oh nice im the 55555th viewer :D awesome song

  37. I.... W....

    Notta one dislike

  38. 5.... ....

    I think they've been influenced by new folk/ new weird america as much as Dylan. Listen to Devendra Banhart "Little Yellow Spider".

  39. T.... ....

    @jackbadman1 Could not agree more, king of spain is ok but this is pure perfection (also like the wheel)

  40. r.... ....

    @blaiserfilms best comment EVER! cheers for that lil chuckle there x

  41. M.... T....

    the first time i heard this i shit the cure for cancer

  42. j.... ....

    This is probably my favourite song ever, and it's such a shame it doesn't get the attention it deserves.

  43. J.... K....

    NEIL IS DEEM

  44. J.... ....

    " This is not the summer dream she said, It's just the drying of the lawns I want to leave out there " amazing lyrics, this man is a genius and Bob Dylan is always close (listen to " don't think twice it's alright ")

  45. B.... ....

    Best track on the Wild Hunt.

  46. J.... S....

    This tune makes me feel like the grass is always greener.
