Lyrics When My Fever Breaks - John Moreland

Star crossed eyes and cross eyed stars
No use hiding age old scars
Well you're not here and I can't be still
I don't think that I'll sleep until I see you

The strongest will the softest touch
I never knew I'd have so much
You call me out and reign me in
Riding through the rain again tonight

Hold my hand and ease my aches
Wake me up when my fever breaks
I'm laying down my soul
The answers that I can't know
And the pain I never thought I would let go of

These days we got held to pay
And we got ridged rolls to play
And driving around this neighbourhood
Just ain't doing me no good this time

But darling when you reach for me
It feels just like infinity
Honey help me break this curse
Howling at the universe again

Hold my hand and ease my aches
Wake me up when my fever breaks
I'm laying down my soul
The answers that I can't know
And the pain i never thought i would let go of
