Letra You remind me of something (the glory goes) Bonnie Prince Billy

You remind me of something (the glory goes)

Well the glory goes to those who do not seek it
reveling in midnight clothes
among the wicked picking scabs from off their skin
and rolling holy deeply in to the rhythm
called the song that does not end

you remind me of something
a song that I am
and you sing me back into myself
when I wake, when I'm sleeping
the song is a man and a woman and everything else

and my mother is a good one as they go
she does not condone the actions that I do that she don't know
she swears nightly before resting that I give her soul a testing
when I sing this song that does not end

you remind me of something a song that I am
and you sing me back into myself
when I wake, when I'm sleeping the song is a man and a woman and everything else

it's been years since I found it
I still go where it pounded
my ears pressed to the chest of that one woman's of song
she adores me, she ignores me and I revel on
in wonder at something so sweet and so long

I like the places where the night does not mean an end
where smiles break free and surprise is your friend
and dancing goes on in the kitchen until dawn to my favorite song that has no end

you remind me of something a song that I am
and you and you sing me back into myself
when I wake, when I'm sleeping the song is a man and a woman and everything else
