lyrics

V1
She was walking with a guitar case
and flowers painted on her face,
didn’t look a day past seventeen.
She told me she had run away.

Collected quarters from the people passing by-
singing her sad old songs.
Couldn’t get too high, no
she couldn’t catch a ride
back home until the end of July.

CHORUS
Dangling out on a limb,
itching for some shoes to walk in.
Longing for layers of skin,
but I’m flying hard against the flock.
I’m feeling the floors getting flimsy,
hunting for some words to lift me
far from the grim of the dark age.
I’m searching for some soul to stir me up.

V2
He’d been sleeping in the sand beneath the pier.
Told me his home burned down.
Hitched his way across the East from New Orleans
with his dog all the way to Provincetown.

His name was Robbie and he played the squeeze
on the street that night.
Made enough to buy some smokes,
he dipped his head into the ocean
and he was gone by morning light.

CHORUS

V3
His name was Daniel and he banged the keys.
He was old and slow.
On his blazer was a button with a picture of his son
who died thirty years ago.

“Don’t care for eating when the whiskey’s full.”
His eyes were red and wet.
Said “I’ve been running since the day I lost my boy
and now I can’t recall a single place I’ve been.

CHORUS
