Letra de Resurrection Fern
In our days we will live Like our ghosts will live Pitching glass at the cornfield crows And folding clothesLike stubborn boys across the road We'll keep everything Grandma's gun and the black bear claw That took her dogWhen sister Laurie says, "Amen" We won't hear anything The ten-car train will take that word That fledgling birdAnd the fallen house across the way It'll keep everything The baby's breath Our bravery wasted and our shameAnd we'll undress beside the ashes of the fire Both our tender bellies wound in bailing wire All the more a pair of underwater pearls Than the oak tree and its resurrection fernIn our days we will say What our ghosts will say We gave the world what it saw fit And what'd we get?Like stubborn boys with big green eyes We'll see everything In the timid shade of the autumn leaves And the buzzard's wingAnd we'll undress beside the ashes of the fire Our tender bellies are wound around in bailing wire All the more a pair of underwater pearls Than the oak tree and its resurrection fern
