lyrics

I’m lonely today
but in a good way
I’ve let my heart lead
without mercy sometimes
I’m faithful to you
and I know I will be
and I’m not always kind
but i’m trying

There’s a zydeco band
in the last sticky light
And I’m dancing with strangers
one after another
And the only thing left
to want from this night
is you dancing with me
as my own sweetest lover

you’re in the city and you’re looking for desert
then you’re in the desert and you’re looking for rain
you’re in his arms looking for comfort
he’s given you comfort, now you’re looking for pain

Not another dark waltz -
I dream these too often
out in the back
digging holes for our dinner
Another brass tack
for the lid of my coffin
Another black feather
for the wings of a sinner

you’re in the city and you’re looking for desert
then you’re in the desert and you’re wishing for rain
you’re in his arms looking for comfort
he’s given you comfort, now you’re begging for pain

Next time i see you
could you act like a stranger
and kiss me like you don’t know
love has a chance
Remember that first time
in my old apartment -
wherever our feet
touch the ground
let em dance

Dayna Kurtz is the kind of artist who inspires wild-eyed zealotry among her fans, and there are 3 reasons for it: 1, she's an artist's artist, one whose whiskeyed, determined alto often earns her comparisons with Nina Simone; 2 while Europeans adore her, she's obscenely underappreciated in her own country; and 3, her songs straddle a difficult space between jazz, rock, and folk, & are pure poetry. ... more
