Holy Dances Lyrics

[Verse 1]
In the night
I called your name
Heart of mine
One letter at a time
I'll be found in a
Land of savages
Ah...

[Chorus]
Maybe you don't know
What you've got
Spent your money
On the desert lot
Holy dances and
Acronyms for her

[Verse 2]
Bury your maps
They'll take all
Your pots and pans

Cross all your hands
One finger at a time
You'll be found in a
Land of savages
[Chorus]
Baby you don't know
What you've got
Husk to hide
And I know you're not
Spending money on a desert rose
Holy dances and acronyms, for bones

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
