Fruition Mountain Annie lyrics

Well I went down to the train yard looking to forget you
and I laid my head down on the rail
well these tracks they must run near you, ‘cause I swear that I could hear you, singing
and I wish I couldn't say, since you been away
well I don't feel like I know myself
yes and when I get to thinkin 'bout it, it just turns to drinkin 'bout it, over and over again

oh why, oh why, do I let myself cry, over you?
when I call out your name, you don't do the same, now do you
get out of my head, give me back my heart Mountain Annie


now in the flicker of a candle's flame, smoke that rises spells your name
and then it disappears
and my hearts grown tired of beatin, and my lips are tired of speakin, so I won't
and the sky must know, the way that these things go because it's raining like it's never gonna stop
and if this flood comes running through, Lord I hope I can float away from you and break these chains
