about

Sweet Talk for Pretty Daughters
(Words & Music by John DeLore & Matthew Kubacki)

lyrics

Guardians and angels, lord knows they’re not the same.
Traveling down the long road one takes the love and one takes the blame.
I am the son of the idle hour. The coal black raven in the ivory tower.
But somehow I learned to turn it all around.

And I make sweet talk for pretty daughters.
And the waters of a flood would have nothing on their love if it takes a shine to you.
Dear feet don’t fail me now, I can hear their mouths gathering around,
Singing “give us a little more sweet talk.”

One must believe in magic if he wants to make it through the night.
Awaken from a dream to wonder what it means, and hope that it turns out right.
I am the son of the idle hour. The attic light on in the ivory tower.
But somehow I learned to turn it all around.

And I make sweet talk for pretty daughters.
And the waters of a flood would have nothing on their love if it takes a shine to you.
Dear feet don’t fail me now, I can hear their mouths gathering around,
Singing “give us a little more sweet talk.”
