Deeper Well Album Lyrics by Kacey Musgraves

Cardinal

I saw the sign or an omen
On the branches in the morning
It was right after I
Lost a friend without warning

Words unsaid
Scarlet-red

Cardinal
Are you bringing me a message from the other side?
Cardinal
Are you telling me I'm on somebody's mind?
Don't leave me behind

I took a walk in the city
To clear my head for a moment
Turned my collar to the wind
On the street, it was blowin'

And there he was
Above my head

Cardinal
Are you bringing me a message from the other side?
Cardinal
Are you telling me I'm on somebody's mind?
Don't leave me behind

Are you just watchin' and waitin' for spring?
Or do you have some kind of magic to bring? (Pretty bird)
Are you just watchin' and waitin' for spring? (Why? Wait)
Or do you have some kind of magic to bring? (Pretty bird)
Are you just watchin' and waitin' for spring?
Or do you have some kind of magic?

Cardinal
Are you bringing me a message from the other side?
Cardinal
Are you telling me I'm on somebody's mind?
Cardinal
Are you bringing me a message from the other side?
Cardinal
Are you telling me I'm on somebody's mind?
Are you bringing me a message from the other side?
Cardinal

Deeper Well

My Saturn has returned
When I turned twenty-seven
Everything started to change

Took a long time, but I learned
There's two kinds of people, one is a giver
And one's always tryin' to take
All they can take

So I'm sayin' goodbye to the people
That I feel are real good at wastin' my time
No regrets, baby, I just think that maybe
You go your way and I'll go mine
It's been a real good time
But you got dark energy, somethin' I can't unsee
And I've got to take care of myself
I found a deeper well

I used to wake and bake
Roll out of bed, hit the gravity bong that I made
And start the day
For a while, it got me by
Everything I did seemed better when I was high
I don't know why

So I'm gettin' rid of the habits that I feel
Are real good at wastin' my time
No regrets, baby, I just think that maybe
It's natural when things lose their shine
So other things can glow
I've gotten older now, I know
How to take care of myself
I found a deeper well
Mm

When I was growing up
We had what we needed, shoes on our feet
But the world was as flat as a plate
And that's okay

The things I was taught only took me so far
Had to figure the rest out myself
And then I found
I found a deeper well
Mm
Mm

Too Good to Be True

Made some breakfast, made some love
This is what dreams are made of
On a cloudy Monday morning
Summer's gone and you're still here
For both of us, it's been a year
A tidal wave without a warning

Please don't make me regret
Openin' up that part of myself
That I've been scared to give again
Be good to me and I'll be good to you
But please don't be too good to be true

In my mind, we're in New York
You had never been before
But, baby, now it's our town
I'll admit that I'm in deep
That I don't know how else to be
And I don't wanna slow down

Please don't make me regret
Openin' up that part of myself
That I've been scared to give again
Be good to me and I'll be good to you
But please don't be too good to be true

Oh, mm
Ooh, mm

Made some breakfast, made some love
If this is what dreams are made of
Please don't wake me

Moving Out

Four walls and so much space
Was way more than just a place
Wasn't it, babe?
A bedroom where you pulled me in
I found out love could start again
Start again

And that big tree in the front yard lost a limb
It almost crushed your car, but it didn't
Yeah, we kept livin' in the house
Plantin' roses all around
Leavin' it better than we found it
Now autumn's movin' in

And we're movin' out
Mm

Remember I still wore that dress
The Christmas that we all got sick
And partied anyway?
I had a break-up, and then I bought it
You always said it might be hard
But I think you're right

A couple of real big fights that we had
I cried, but it was hard to stay mad
We had good times, can't deny it
And even though I feel excited
I'm kinda sad we're leavin'
Now that autumn's movin' in

And we're movin' out
We're movin' out
Mm

Giver / Taker

Sundown and I'm lonely in this house
It's feeling one-dimensional to me
We've been tryin' hard to figure out
Give and take and how to be
But don't you see?

I would give you everything that you wanted
And I would never ask for any of it back
And if I could take only as much as I needed
I would take everything you had

Sunrise and you're lying next to me
Wrap me in your arms like I'm made of glass
Honey, all your love, not just one piece
Hopin' that it ain't too much for me to ask

'Cause I would give you everything that you wanted
But I would never ask for any of it back
And if I could take only as much as I needed
I would take everything you had

Don't wanna share, I want it all all of the time
Tell me right now you feel the same and that you're mine

Baby, don't you know I'd give you everything that you wanted (give you everything)
And I would never ask for any of it back (never)
And if I could take only as much as I needed (oh)
I would take everything, I would take everything you had
Everything you had

Sway

When the wind blows, it can push you around
It can shake you
Maybe you can show me
'Cause it seems like you know how
To not let it faze you
If I didn't wanna take control, I could let go

Maybe one day
I'll learn how to sway

Most of the time, all the thoughts in my mind keep me running
Show me a place where I can just think of nothing
If I surrender, if I let go, will you hold me?

Maybe one day
I'll learn how to sway
Like a palm tree in the wind
I won't break, I'll just bend
And I'll sway
I'll sway

I'll sway
I'll sway (mm, yeah-yeah, mm, yeah-yeah)
Like a palm tree in the wind
I won't break, I'll just bend
And I'll sway
I'll sway

I'll sway (mm, yeah-yeah, mm, yeah-yeah)
I'll sway (mm, yeah-yeah, mm, yeah-yeah)

Dinner With Friends

Dinner with friends in cities where none of us live
The face that somebody makes when you give 'em a gift
Every once in a while when I wake up early without tryin' and catch a sunrise

The feeling you feel when you're looking at something you made
The layers and ruffles of my favorite pink champagne cake
My home state of Texas
The sky there, the horses and dogs, but none of their laws

The shape of his eyes
The shape of his nose
The cute way he mispronounces certain words
The smell of his clothes
Things I would miss
From the other side
Mm

Intimate convos that go way into the night
The way that the sun on my floor makes a pattern of light
And early in June, when the fireflies first start to glow, never gets old

The shape of his heart
And my shoes by his door
He loves me in all of the ways that I never felt love before
Things I would miss
From the other side
Mm
Mm
Mm

Heart Of The Woods

Under the ground, there's a neighborhood that can't be seen
Communicating through the roots of the trees
And up in the trees, there are voices that are echoing
A million different languages, songs we sing

It's in our nature
To look out for each other
In the heart of the woods
Mm
When there's danger
We'll take care of each other
In the heart of the woods
Mm

Ooh

It's in our nature
To look out for each other
In the heart of the woods
Mm
When there's danger
We'll take care of each other
In the heart of the woods
Mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm
Heart of the woods

Jade Green

I wanna bathe in the moonlight
Until I'm fully charged
Come into my power
And heal the broken parts
That I carry
Mm

Like the bracelet that you bought me
I want you on my arm
Calm, cool and protected
And keepin' me from harm

Jade green
Jade green
I always keep it on me
Always keep it on me

I can't help it, I get anxious
And every time we part
I say a little prayer
To drive away the dark
And I'm with you and you're with me
Like the bracelet that you gave me

Jade green
Jade green
I always keep it on me
Always keep it on me
On me
On me (on me)
Mm, on me

The Architect

No Lyrics

Lonely Millionaire

You can step off a plane into a black car
You can pay 'em to wait
You can wear the gold watch on your wrist
But it won't give you back the moments you miss

When I get paid, I wanna spend it on you
And baby, that's what it's for
I'd burn it all to keep you warm

Who wants to be a lonely millionaire
Comin' home, ain't no one there
That you can talk to in your king-sized bed
Be careful what you wish for, I see it all the time
The money and the diamonds and the things that shine
Can't buy you true happiness

La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la

All I want, all I want
All I want is you
All I want, all I want
All I want is you
Oh, mm

Be careful what you wish for, I see it all the time
The money and the diamonds and the things that shine
Can't buy you true happiness

Oh, mm (la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la)
La-la-la-la
Mm

Heaven Is

We spent all day where the North wind blows
And you bought me a lavender rose
Put it in water when we got home
That's what heaven is

No tears to cry, and nothing to mourn
Wearin' your shirt, so tattered and torn
Widen your arms, so safe and warm
That's what heaven is

I don't care for money or fame
All, for you, I'd give it away
The way you sound when you call my name
That's what heaven is

Nobody knows where we go when we die
Maybe we'll ride white horses in the sky
And if we don't then, darling, tonight
That's what heaven is

If all I have is the light in your eyes
That's what heaven is

Anime Eyes

The moon is hanging over us, the wind is in the trees
We've got nowhere to be, do we, baby?
On a piece of paper, you write out your love for me
Treasures I'm forever saving

Oh, you're such a pretty thing

When I look at you, I'm always looking through anime eyes
A million little stars bursting into hearts in my anime eyes

Made it through the tears to see a Miyazaki sky
Now it's you and I, and we're flying
Confidently, I can say, I'd almost given up (I almost gave up)
Then you showed me how to love without trying

Oh, you're such a pretty thing

When I look at you, I'm always looking through anime eyes
A million little stars bursting into hearts in my anime eyes
When I look at you (anime eyes)
A million little stars, anime eyes

Ridiculous hazy, crazy, rainbow, explosions of ecstasy
Oh my God, the memories
Happy tears overflowing, lightning bolts so overwhelming
Ugly crying, now I'm melting
Turning into flowers blooming
Angels singing, bells are ringing
Baby, I'm a love tsunami, washing over both our bodies
Sailor Moon's got nothing on me

Since the first time that I saw you
You've given me anime eyes
Anime eyes

Nothing to be Scared Of

Livin' on the west side and
I think about you often
Worryin' that I might drive
The nail into the coffin
I've got my own patterns
Maybe I can stop them

Holdin' tight to who you are
Like someone's gonna take it
Bubble wrap around your heart
Like someone's gonna break it

Demons in your mirror
Together, we'll escape them
Come to me and drop your bags
And I'll help you unpack them
You're the only one I want to give my love
There's nothing to be scared of

I made a list of everything
That I've been busy chasin'
But if a train is meant for me
It won't leave the station
And pull away

I'll come to you and drop my bags
And you'll help me unpack them
You say I'm the only one you wanna give your love
There's nothing to be scared of

Nothing to be scared of
Nothing to be scared of
