Jo Rose- King of Your Blue Eyes

Jo Rose, "King of Your Blue Eyes" From the 2014 debut record 'Spurs' --- Jo Rose: Vox, Ac. Guitar --- O my boy, you are king of your blue eyes but don’t open them too wide or hear the cavalry call or the beating of the drums, calling out a name. When they do, don’t get scared and cry out ‘I am’ or see the other in anything. They’ll never let you go. O my child, you were young when I first told you that the devil is within you and first felt that you wanted to know more than you knew, felt the first desire to rule. And it seemed so cruel. You took the one and split it out into two. You made it all mean something about you. When will they let you go? And I know what I did, but I don’t want to be reminded. O my boy, though you’re king of your wax wings, you’re at the mercy of your whims. How the golden bough hangs over us. How the moon’s baring down on us. When will the let you go? And I know what I’ve done, but I don’t want to hear it from you or anyone. ---   / jothomasrose     / jothomasrose     / spurs   https://jorose.bandcamp.com/
