|
Heat lightning rumbles in the distance |
|
Sounds from west of the trees |
|
The old olds gone and the house is falling gone |
|
But the ghosts are a comfort to me |
|
Ghosts of my family and the time it's moved on |
|
Changing the whole garden new |
|
Standing here in the days for a while |
|
Strong beside you |
|
Strong beside you on this land that |
|
I brought you too |
|
Strong beside you with my arm holding you close |
|
Strong beside you with these babies at our feet |
|
The warm summer wind blows |
|
The warm summer wind blows |
|
The chimney's fell down |
|
The grass ain't been cut |
|
And the road into town |
|
Cuts through woods |
|
And the barn needs a roof |
|
There's things more important |
|
That holding proof |
|
Holding the proof and it's keeping me strong |
|
Won't miss this house we're in much longer |
|
This hollowing much longer takes its toe on us both |
|
And I guess that it's good that it shown |
|
Looking for a comfort in the known |
|
Looking for a comfort in the known |
|
Nothing takes the place to the ones you left behind |
|
This place you always held in this heart of mine |
|
Holding on too long to the place you always healed |
|
Heat lightning rumbles in the distance |
|
As I creep slowly by |
|
I hold myself together |
|
Someone between anguish and acceptance |
|
As I creep slowly by |
|
I hold myself together |
|
Someone between anguish and acceptance |
