Lyrics
Well the house on the corner burned down
I took your picture where the living room was
You were holding
You were holding a baby
It was a Polaroid
And it faded with time
Nothing to restore the view
New water
Through old grounds
Stronger then I remember
Stronger then I remember
remember it well
Sometimes I dream of the past
Up against the fence I would finish what you started.
You liked to call us strangers
And you told me what to do
They found a body in the river
Below the dogwood Bloom
Caught by the bridge and the branches
I stole my mothers cigarettes
In the winter
I stole my mother’s money
In the spring
I know a man
Who drags his stuff behind him
And he goes from town to town
He’s a heavy metal gypsy
And he’s wearing the crown
His mother never told him
She was proud
I see folks sitting by the ocean
Looking out over the water
And every day I see more
I suspect they’re lonely
And the water Is a comfort
Knowing they can’t run anymore
They found a body in the river
Below the dogwood Bloom
Caught by the bridge, caught by the branches
