"Brook And Branch" lyrics
(feat. Baby Eagle)
Where did you go?
By brook or by branch
Down a steep road
How did you go?
Like a ghost in the shipyard quarantined for foreign sins
And the mistakes of my youth
Why did you go to Parrsboro
When you could have stayed
Here with me?
I don't know
I was growing old
By brook and by branch
Every age must pass
Every age must pass
Silently
Like a spook in the woods
Or a crow at the window calling for meat
I saw your name at the bottom of an old love letter
It was dragging like an anchor
At the bottom of the harbor in Parrsboro
In Parrsboro
By brook or by branch
Down a steep road
How did you go?
Like a ghost in the shipyard quarantined for foreign sins
And the mistakes of my youth
Why did you go to Parrsboro
When you could have stayed
Here with me?
I don't know
I was growing old
By brook and by branch
Every age must pass
Every age must pass
Silently
Like a spook in the woods
Or a crow at the window calling for meat
I saw your name at the bottom of an old love letter
It was dragging like an anchor
At the bottom of the harbor in Parrsboro
In Parrsboro
