Little Perennials(Album Version)

歌詞

Back in the long stretch of loneliness I have come to call a living I'm getting something for all this love's labor Even when I am forgetting Oh we oh oh, little perennials Where'd you come from? Daughter of my father's second cousin Loyalties, I got 'em by the dozen We share a past, we share a blood relation And that's as good as an invitation Oh we oh oh, little perennials Where'd you come from? I'm in the North Carolina mountains Just to the west of where I met my calling If you look south to the foothills of these mountains rising That's the place where it feels good falling That's the place that I know I look for words to fill the empty spaces All the life revealed in these back stages I reach for names like little puzzle pieces Oh perennial, come to me Oh we oh oh, little perennials Where'd you come from?
