"Blood" lyrics - ALLISON MOORER

A candle on the windowsill
Burning bright, burning still
Leads you home and lights the way
There today like yesterday

[Chorus:]
And you don't have to explain
I got your blood running through my veins

And it don't matter where you've been
Through the thick, through the thin
Say a prayer and say my name
I am the keeper of the flame

[Chorus:]
And you don't have to explain
I got your blood running through my veins
And you don't have to explain
I got your blood running through my veins

All your secrets have a home
They won't be traded, won't be sold
Whisper softly in my ear
When you want 'em, they are here

[Chorus:]
And you don't have to explain
I got your blood running through my veins
And you don't have to explain
I got your blood running through my veins
And you don't have to explain
I got your blood running through my veins
No, you don't have to explain
I got your blood running through my veins
Running through my veins
Running through my veins

[Outro:]
No we ain't got a barrel of money
Maybe we're ragged and funny
But we'll travel along, singin' a song
Side by side
