lyrics

I've been trying to lay down with a woman like you
a woman like you
But I just don't know how with a woman like you
a woman like you
My fingers are ready, my mind is all clear
I'm down in your temple, and I am prepared
to worship, worship, worship, worship you
I worship, worship, worship

I've been traveling through cornfields for thousands of miles
through bushes and briars and shamers and liars
and swam through a sea of a thousand false smiles
these boasters and braggers with teeth just like daggars
been battling dragons all dressed up like men
their blazers and jackets, their schemes and their rackets
been through too many dark caves and back out again
and I just need a friend
and I just need a friend

See I've been trying to be whole with a woman like you
a woman like you
I could save my own soul with a woman like you
a woman like you
The praises will drip from the tip of my tongue
the whole of my mouth will fill up with songs
of worship, worship, worship, worship you
I worship, worship, worship

I've been trading my cunning for pitchers of beer
handcuffed to the bar with just my guitar
and a whiskey soaked demon breathing in my ear
this path has been plotted, it's just what you wanted
this motion-stagnation from city to town
I've sang for my supper, hit bad notes and suffered
been walking so long on this uneven ground
and I need to sit down
and I need to sit down
sit down

Cause I've been waiting so long for a woman like you
(a woman like you) a woman like you
I could write a whole song for a woman like you
(a woman like you) a woman like you
This ache in my body is bound to subside
the moment that you allow me inside
to worship, worship, worship, worship you
I worship, worship, worship worship you
I worship, worship, worship worship you
I worship, worship, worship worship you...

about

Kosi image

Kosi New York, New York

She's more than just a drama queen. She's got piercing eyes and a voice that's larger than her body. But, small as she is, she won't fit in a box. She switches styles more quickly than you can follow. First she's jazz, then she's blues, then she's rock, but always powerful. You definitely want to hear this girl sing... if you can handle it. ... more
