Chris Whitley – Valley Of Innocents lyrics

Album: Soft Dangerous Shores

HOW LONG HAVE I RUN
DESIRE TO DESPAIR
FROM THE VALLEY I SEE
WHOLE QUESTIONS ON HER PRAYER

HOW MANY STATIONS CALL
ON TRANSMISSION OF SHAME
FROM THE VALLEY I HEAR
WHOLE PRAYERS IN HER NAME

HOW LONG I BE CHASED
FORE THE EARTH TAKE ME IN
FROM THE VALLEY I TASTE
WHOLE FUTURES ON HER SKIN
