Gillian Welch
New Dug Grave

I left home when I was twenty
Just to see what I could find
With a promise made to Mother
To return at Christmas time.

But when the new year turned to summer
I was running rough and wild
Haunted by my broken promise
And her tender, trusting smile.

Sick at heart I started homeward
Still it took a year and more
Till I saw the garden flowers
Leading to my mother's door.

Brother, sister standing silent
Turning as I call their names
On the ground, familiar shadows
Pointing to a new dug grave...


Mirror lyrics:

Pointing to a new dug grave...
On the ground, familiar shadows
Turning as I call their names
Brother, sister standing silent

Leading to my mother's door.
Till I saw the garden flowers
Still it took a year and more
Sick at heart I started homeward

And her tender, trusting smile.
Haunted by my broken promise
I was running rough and wild
But when the new year turned to summer

To return at Christmas time.
With a promise made to Mother
Just to see what I could find
I left home when I was twenty

curanto

angels with snipers

figure it out

wildfire

tricks of the light

solo le pido a dios

peace now

put your heart into it

well, yes dear

don't let me down

make it right tonight

i know you're going away

first steps

the flower

childhood memories

one too many nights

climbing up the walls

love the one your with

rebel run

si me cambian los recuredos
