Joe Purdy Admirals Daughter lyrics

Did you come down for the cool of the water or the preacher that taught you to pray
or things left behind like the admirals daughter
she was the one who just got away
she was the one that just got away

I could of told you a long time ago there was nothing but heartache in there
you take to the mountains get caught in the snow
you grow as hard and as cold as the air
you grow as hard and as cold as the air

well you'd do it again if you had the chance but you know that you don't so you lie

you say that you're fine and got eerything you need
but you're too old and you're too touch to die
you're too old and you're too touch to cry

so did you come down for the cool of the water or the preacher that taught you to pray
or things left behind like the admirals daughter
she was the one who just got away
she was the one who just got away
