lyrics

And I went down to the valley
And I laid your bones to rest
You never told me what you wanted
But Lord knows I've done my best
And I went down to the valley
Like I promised I would go
And I like to think you were waiting there
But you know, and I know, we'll never know for sure

I'll see you again, when the flood clears
But what about all these years
With the storm just rolling in
I'll see you again, when the flood clears
I'll sail through this fear
Like a ship without a port

And I went out to the desert
And I laid my head to rest
And I tried my best to make the shaking stop
To find the grace of God
To do what must come next

I'll see you again, when the flood clears
But what about all these years
With the storm just rolling in
I'll see you again, when the flood clears
I'll sail through this fear
Like a ship without a port

And I walked down to main street
Of this goddamn tiny town
Packed your things and drove east to the river with my sister
And prayed to God that we would drown somehow
Got back to the city, and nobody missed me
And I tried my damndest to breathe
Got hit in the street by a man younger than me
Who said ‘this land is my land now, and you have to leave’

So release me
won't you release me
Release me
Oh God, release me
Won't you let me go
I can't watch this anymore

So release me
won't you release me
Oh God, release me
Release me
Won't you let me go
