about
Split My Tooth is about when the person you're in love with is unknowingly breaking you're heart. You're making a choice to separate yourself from the ache. "Ill be here in the morning if you want to stay" is a reference to a Townes Van Zandt song I sang to my husband at our wedding.
lyrics
Split my tooth
split my tooth, right down the center,
love me twice, never again,
dance with you if I want to,
if I want ill hold your hand
I don't own you, I wouldn't want to any ways,
I don't own you, I got nothing to say
I don't own you, got a feeling you won't stay
but ill be here in the morning if you change your ways
work all night, till afternoon
take your name, if you want me to
hold my door open for two
don't know if ill still walk outside with you
I don't own you, I wouldn't want to any ways,
I don't own you, I got nothing to say
I don't own you, got a feeling you won't stay
but ill be here in the morning if you change your ways
ill be here in the morning if you want to stay
cause I'm drowning in the fields this way
I'm sinking neath the grass while they're out to graze
singing hallelujah I'm still loving you, singing hallelujah I'm still love’n you
I don't own you, I wouldn't want to any ways,
I don't own you, I got nothing to say
I don't own you, got a feeling you won't stay
but ill be here in the morning if you change your ways
ill be here in the morning if you want to stay
