"Mississippi" lyrics
"Mississippi"
I'm going down to the sea
M-I-S-S-I-S-S-I-P-P
I watch the sun yellow and brown
Sinking suns in every town
My angel sings down to me
She's somewhere on the shore waiting for me
With her wet hair and sandy gown
Singing songs waves of sound
There's a dive I know on River Street
Go on in and take my seat
There's a lot of friends I'll never meet
Gonna take a dive off River Street
You look different from way down here
Like a circus mirror I see flashes, of you on the surface
I'm coming up from way down here
The water's clear, all I want is to see your face
I'm going down to the sea
M-I-S-S-I-S-S-I-P-P
I watch the sun yellow and brown
Sinking suns in every town

For the oldest words in use
Now I no longer ask myself
