From the recording Where I'm From
Some people are just meant to be together, and they know it instinctively.
Lyrics
Bone Of My Bone
Lilly dreamed of a lover, each night when work was done.
As she pulled up the covers, and the moon pushed way the sun.
Of all the men who could love her, she did not want them save one.
He’d yet not been discovered; she knew one day he would come
Billy was a gambler, he laid it all on the line.
A rake and a rambler, lived on the edge most the time.
Knew someone was missing, knew not who she could be.
With love and kisses, her in his dream he would see
Find the heart meant for your soul, A life-long love should be the goal.
Don’t give up until you find home, Blood of my blood, bone of my bone.
I saw you through the window of the café down the street.
Standing back in the shadows I watch you take your seat.
Hair black as midnight, eyes green as the sea.
As my heart took flight, I hoped you could love me
You came through the doorway, smiled as our eyes met.
Walked up to me straight away, then you laid down your bet.
Said all that you could gamble was heart body and soul.
The way you made me tremble, there’s no way I could say no
Find the heart meant for your soul, A life-long love should be the goal.
Don’t give up until you find home, Blood of my blood bone of my bone.
