Lyrics
TEN PENNY NAILS A half-locked love, a treasure chest A stolen kiss or a gift for free? I found the keyhole but lost the chance In trade for honor among thieves God knows -- it’s hard -- on tippy-toes With a heart that rattles and hands that shake Like ten penny nails in a coffeecan I’m kinda subtle when I’m sneakin up A sunset walk, some feelings claimed You held my hand while I held my tongue But makin love and makin love songs ain’t the same There’s one that leaves it most unsung God knows -- it’s hard -- to sing so bold With a heart that rattles and a voice that shakes Like ten penny nails in a coffeecan Just sweet enough to stir things up Open window, it’s come and gone I missed the time but nailed the place I’ve seen you often but none at dawn It’s a light that’s missing from your face God knows -- it’s hard -- through lids half closed While one heart rattles but one head shakes Like ten penny nails in a coffeecan Gettin rusty as the days go by Copyright 2001.
