"Detroit Mourning" lyrics

"Detroit Mourning"

Look at you looking at me
Up above your spirit
You were out of your body
I was digging around in your neck
For a pulse
For a sign
You were mine for a time
You were my first home
Then you were free

I got stuck
I held you inside too long
I should have known you were gone
Staring down that hall
At the white sheet and learning
In my way I should have known
You couldn't leave if I forgot to let go
Please please forgive me

Detroit Mourning
Take warning
Take something darlin'
But it's all good
You'll go when you should

Detroit Mourning
Take warning
Take something darlin'
But it's all good
You'll go when you should

Detroit Mourning
Take warning
Take something darlin'
But it's all good
You'll go when you should

Detroit Mourning
Take warning
Take something darlin'
But it's all good
You'll go when you should

But it's all good
You'll go when you should

But it's all good
You'll go when you should

Oh you know she became a butterfly
Oh you know she became a butterfly
Oh you know she became a butterfly
Oh you know she became a butterfly
Oh you know she became a butterfly
Oh you know she became a butterfly
Oh you know she became a butterfly
Oh you know she became a butterfly
