"Given Road" lyrics

"Given Road"

There's a wall on the corner of Given Road
It's long and it's curved and stone and old
Keeps out the sun, keeps in the cold
I just miss the one that loved me

Like the holes bored into the old ash tree
I'm not really sure what's eating me
I compare myself to the shagbark hickory
But I just miss the one that loved me

I miss the one
I miss someone
I miss the weight of you
And the pain we used to move through
'Til the clouds of our afflictions
Would break and clear
And I miss what I'm forgetting
I try not to, but I'm letting go
Of every shred of anything that held you here

I miss someone, I miss someone
I miss someone, I, I
Given time they say I'll find
A way to ease my troubled mind
When all that lies in front of me
Are miles and miles and miles
Of Given Road
