Welcome to my Damien Rice Web Page: Im a 20 year old girl living in Sweden, Gotenburg who loves Damien Rices songs! im stuying at Chalmers Techology university (CTH) The best Damien Songs: -Darling -Blowers daughter -Eskimo Here are some lyrics that a say on another page: Enyoy! O Delicate We might kiss when we are alone When nobodys watching We might take it home We might make out when nobodys there Its not that were scared Its just that its delicate So why do you fill my sorrow With the words youve borrowed From the only place youve know And why do you sing Hallelujah If it means nothing to you Why do you sing with me at all? We might live like never before When theres nothing to give Well how can we ask for more We might make love in some sacred place The look on your face is delicate So why do you fill my sorrow With the words youve borrowed From the only place youve know And why do you sing Hallelujah If it means nothing to you Why do you sing with me at all? So why do you fill my sorrow With the words youve borrowed From the only place youve know And why do you sing Hallelujah If it means nothing to you Why do you sing with me at all? Back to top.

What I give to you Is just what Im going through This is nothing new No, no, just another phase of finding what I really need Is what makes me bleed Like a new disease But lord shes still too young to treat Shes still too young/ Volcanoes melt you down What I am to you/ Volcanoes melt you down/ Shes still too young Is not real/ Volcanoes melt you down/ Shes still too young What I am to you/ Volcanoes melt you down/ Shes still too young You do not need/ Volcanoes melt you down/ Shes still too young Shes still too young/ Volcanoes melt you down/ Shes still too young You do not need me Back to top.

Back to main page Eskimo Tiredness fuels empty thoughts I find myself disposed Brightness fills empty space In search of inspiration Harder now with higher speed Washing in on top of me So I look to my eskimo friend I look to my eskimo friend I look to my eskimo friend When Im down, down, down. Rain it wets muddy roads I find myself exposed Tapping doors, but irritate In search of destination Harder now with higher speed Washing in on top of me So I look to my eskimo friend I look to my eskimo friend I look to my eskimo friend When Im down, down, down.
