Bobby Kitchens - Dead River Road Lyrics

If you wander down Dead River Road
Reliving the memory of somebody else's ghost
Who traded their soul for a bag of beans
And cried on a stranger when the sun burned off their wings
Photographing a painting of endless grace
We're sharing the spare change
And rearranging the stars where they got it wrong
And our comfortable days play
Our comfortable days play all night long
If you hide out down Dead River Road
Remember the branches break the tighter that you hold
And shadows leave you when you rest
I sleep like a baby beside the hornet's nest
Photographing a painting of endless grace
We're sharing the spare change
And rearranging the stars where they got it wrong
And our comfortable days play
Our comfortable days play all night long
Where have you gone, my blue-eyed darling?
Out breaking mares on the western plains
There's a smile on my lips for you every morning
That's all the news that I've got today
It's like everything has changed
The clouds cried out the rain
And every hour feels the same
When night comes down Dead River Road
And every window becomes an uncharged phone
I fill up my fangs with summer's gold
And scare off the nightmares before I get too old
Photographing a painting of endless grace
We're sharing the spare change
And rearranging the stars where they got it wrong
And our comfortable days play
Our comfortable days play now
Our comfortable days play all night long

If you wander down Dead River Road
Reliving the memory of somebody else's ghost
Who traded their soul for a bag of beans
And cried on a stranger when the sun burned off their wings
Photographing a painting of endless grace
We're sharing the spare change
And rearranging the stars where they got it wrong
And our comfortable days play
Our comfortable days play all night long
If you hide out down Dead River Road
Remember the branches break the tighter that you hold
And shadows leave you when you rest
I sleep like a baby beside the hornet's nest
Photographing a painting of endless grace
We're sharing the spare change
And rearranging the stars where they got it wrong
And our comfortable days play
Our comfortable days play all night long
Where have you gone, my blue-eyed darling?
Out breaking mares on the western plains
There's a smile on my lips for you every morning
That's all the news that I've got today
It's like everything has changed
The clouds cried out the rain
And every hour feels the same
When night comes down Dead River Road
And every window becomes an uncharged phone
I fill up my fangs with summer's gold
And scare off the nightmares before I get too old
Photographing a painting of endless grace
We're sharing the spare change
And rearranging the stars where they got it wrong
And our comfortable days play
Our comfortable days play now
Our comfortable days play all night long
