Jessica Pratt - World on a String

Follow Jessica Pratt

Lyrics
She's got the world on a string
'Bout the time she comes around here anyway
And it's only lasted for awhile
And it's only luster for the tide
You should know the courage of my heart
Don't suppose the earth could spin apart
And here it goes, oh-oh-oh
And here it goes, oh-oh-oh

I used to want for what your desolation hadn't come by
And as your seconds spark our turning off and turning up now
Child
Oh, to bear

I want to be the sunlight of the century
I want to be a vestige of our senses free

I used to want for what your desolation hadn't come by
And as your seconds spark our turning off and turning up now
Child
Oh, to bear

I want to be the sunlight of the century
I want to be a vestige of our senses free

If you are here, then you have the style of a rare collector eye and ears. The whole album is fantastic, like all her others. she's got it over me like a circus tent. All love.

Love Jessica. She sounds from a different era. Beautiful stuff.

It's been 5 years, wish all my favorite artists were as prolific as KGLW

[yousmokemid]

Equal parts whimsy and beauty, harkening back to the warm tones of 1960.

[ranc]

Heard it on French Radio station "FIP". Nice.
