Here are the words to Green Pine Grove (because you asked!)
Green Pine Grove
She came away soft as ink on paper’s face
the rain begins and never ends,
The swollen creek is overfilled
the flowers pushed their way into the beaten soil
I never shook the rust away, the steel’s decay of tractor wheels and torn up fields
I’ve never felt this thick before, my mind is filled with sorry nigh ts and sober wakes
Crying won’t keep you here by my side
Keep staring out of my window
The swallows return to the mission
Lay in bed with papers spread across the knees the honey bees make honeycombs
I sang a song that you began of rolling fields and murders of the distant crows
I never read a single word, the hummingbirds scraped across the pedal steel
I’ve never known this place before, I’m souring on metaphors and Clementines
