From the recording Ashland
Lyrics
She got stoned again her body broke down and caved in
I stared in with dread, as she lay still upon the doctor’s bed
She woke up at four, we shot the shit and talked about the war
We both longed for times, when it was easier to turn our eyes
All these days have come
And gone before we’re done with them
I for one am older than I thought I was
He went down again, tried to break his fall but never did
Son stood looking round, father lying there upon the ground
We all comforted, best we could until his family did
Dad and I drove back, I sat and prayed I’d never deal with that
All these days have come
And gone before we’re done with them
I for one am older than I thought I was
Tire tracks were left along with someone that She never met
She stood looking on, mesmerized by how it all went wrong
When she came home that spring, I couldn’t keep her from remembering
She could see through walls, and turning eyes would be no help at all
All these days have come
And gone before we’re done with them
I for one am older than I thought I was
