Lyrics

There’s a face in the mountain
behind my home
And when heartache ‘s a callin’
upon her cheeks I roam

There’s a cottonwood snowstorm
swirling outside
And I’ve learned that’s where the twinkle
in my eye likes to hide

Skinny raindrops a fallin’
behind these walls
You’re in love with us darlin’
each pitter patter calls

River trout you’re a dyin’
before my eyes
I can feel you and then just
a lump of earth there lies

Shiny black ocean waters
black open skies
Where you meet there’s just nothing
it swallows me inside
