Tarnation - The well Lyrics I'm waiting, I wait, for the creaking of the gate, How long, how long must I wait. I sit, I sit, the weeds gather 'round me, The wind whips my dress so that I cannot see. So long, good-bye, to that great moaning sky and I'll cast my heart down the well. I stare, I stare, and I'm looking over there, 'Cross that ghostly lake where he dwelled. I look and I see a light burnin' bright, But I know it doesn't burn for me tonight So long, good-bye, to that great moaning sky and I'll cast my heart down the well. Looking down, looking down, to where he once laid, The birds hovered then took him away. I rise to my feet and I walk down that road Where I silently cry when this story is told. So long, good-bye, to that great moaning sky and I'll cast my heart down the well. Tarnation - The well Lyrics I'm waiting, I wait, for the steps on the path, I'm waiting but steps never come The sun's burning still, And the plans that we made Have slowly faded away So long, good-bye, to that crazy moaning sky and I'll cast my heart down the well. The whole years slowly passed, where the high grass has grown By the lake where we used to play The ravine's grown so high, round the shaded brick well. In the field where we used to play So long, good-bye, to that crazy moaning sky and I'll cast my heart down the well. |
