Been listening to ITW soundtrack and alot of Ray Lamontagne this week. I think Ed would do a decent job singing Trouble. :)

    Ray Lamontagne - Empty lyrics



    She lifts her skirt up to her knees
    Walks through the garden rows
    With her bare feet laughing

    I never learned to count my blessings
    I choose instead to dwell
    In my disasters

    I walk on down the hill
    Through grass grown tall
    And brown and still
    It's hard somehow
    To let go of my pain

    On past the busted back
    Of that old and rusted Cadillac
    That sinks into this field
    Collecting rain

    Will I always feel this way
    So empty
    And estranged?

    And of these cut throat busted sunsets
    These cold and damp white mornings
    I have grown weary

    If through my cracked and dusty
    Dime store lips
    I spoke these words out loud
    Would no one hear me?

    Lay your blouse across the chair
    Let fall the flowers
    From your hair
    And kiss me
    With that country mouth
    So plain

    Outside the rain is tapping
    On the leaves
    To me it sounds like
    They're applauding us
    The quiet love
    We've made

    Will it always feel this way
    So empty
    So estranged?

    Well I looked my demons in the eyes
    Lay bare my chest
    Said do your best
    To destroy me

    I've been to hell and back
    So many times
    I must admit
    You kinda bore me

    There's a lot of things
    That can kill a man
    There's a lot of ways
    To die
    Yes, and some already did
    And walk beside me

    There's a lot of things
    I don't understand
    So many people lie
    It's the hurt I hide that fuels
    The fire inside me

    Will I always feel this way
    So empty
    So estranged?



    Fast becoming one of my favorite songs. :)

    Yes the one that Ed sings is a Cat Stevens song. I was meaning Ray's song Trouble.

    didnt take the time to click the link eh?

    i agree that this would sound cool with ed singing it... 2 trouble covers might get a lil confusing tho... as we have already seen first hand :D
