James River Incident |
After 47 days they left well enough alone |
The cops and the reporters have all gone home |
All that’s left is legend and stories to be told |
Tired of all the questions, tired of all the calls |
Tired of explaining myself against the wall |
Funny how tragedy brings out the best in everyone |
Standing on the shoreline, burning candles in the rain |
I don’t want to hear that garbage anymore |
Watching all the flowers as they’re rolling down the james |
The dead can rest forever more if the creek don’t rise again |
Love burns brightest all dressed up in black |
With summertime just around the bend |
You handle your grief and i’ll deal with mine |
We’ll all get along just fine (ch) |
After 47 days they left well enough alone |
The cops and the reporters have all gone home |
All that’s left is legend and stories to be told |
And i know that they’re out there, i know they’re watching me |
And they wait for me to give myself away |
But there’s just a few secrets between the river and me (ch) |
