Lyrics Maria McKee

Maria McKee

Drowned And Died

Down in the woods, the time burns turpentine

All of my days, I prayed for the savior to find

Taking you down to swim in the river

Holding my hand, praying you won't let me go

I walk in the night, the lonely moon is calling me

Dreaming aloud, my voice echoes through fallen trees

Spent all my days roaming the valleys

Dreaming of you, the stars turned against us

My lover, your sweet little baby

Has fallen down while you looked away

Lover, your sweet little baby has drowned and died

While you looked right into her eyes

Spent all my days roaming the valleys

Dreaming of you, the stars turned against us

My lover, your sweet little baby

Has fallen down and you looked away

Lover, your sweet little baby has drowned and died

While you looked right into my eyes

I lie on the floor

The orange flicker of candles above

I'm telling myself

The longest roads were walked for love
