Classrooms And Kitchens
Classrooms and kitchens Small country houses Blue Hills on the radio She stoked the fire She weaved and she sewed The river broke and it flooded down the road
Cattle in the garden Snakes in the grass Fog in the morning Rising at last Oh the dust never settled But the willows weep and the windows rattle
She sits by the window In a blue rubber chair They've wiped her lips They've tied back her hair
Come on lay down, lay down Lay down your long goodbye Come on lay down, lay down Lay down your long goodbye
Here comes the thunder Here come the rain Danny boy's calling her She's singing again Oh her grey eyes keep glowing Through the tears and the pain Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Oh her petty coat's showing
Well her hands start shaking When the old man comes around The rain outside is soaking the ground
Come on lay down, lay down lay down your long goodbye She's leaving, she's leaving It's too late to wonder why
She's searching for traces Blinks in the light It's in their faces in the dead of the night When they crawled into her bed She remembers what her children once said Singing Hail Mary all over again She's counting angels from zero to ten
Come on lay down, lay down Lay down your long goodbye She's leaving; she's leaving It's too late to wonder why Come on lay down, lay down Lay down your long goodbye
Goodbye
