Description
More about a feeling, these ghosts come to me, the ghost of my grandfather I never knew, ghosts of feelings that flow into and out of our minds like leaves in autumn. How we try to get through life as best we can but we often stumble through, wading through the seasons like mules carrying our heavy thoughts. But they are all but thoughts and we could leave them behind.
Lyrics
Laddie don’t go I drowned in the sound of your wonderful bickering that lasted all night till the moon lost it’s glow she wandered the streets with her hair all a fluttering in the wind as it blew to the south, laddie don’t go mind over matter and starry skies lingering he wears the hat of the master of vines hang my head over the bright orange rafters she bends like the reeds of her watery greed, laddie don’t go Find me a finger that points to the outcast strangers who walk with the gait of a mule I’ll find a penny under buckets of rain fall before I let one more tiny bird fall, laddie don’t go, lights a cigarette, takes another sip yellow the light falls on finger tips, he takes another sip taken to leaning on the gas lights, he stumbles he stumbles he stumbles he stumbles, laddie don’t go, stumbles, stumbles, stumbles, stumbles, stumbles, stumbles, stumbles, laddie don’t go, laddie don’t go.
