Christmas Valley

It's breathin' time

In Christmas Valley

Herons fly by night

And crash into the pines

And when we're gone

From Christmas Valley

No one will remember you

Leave nothin' to remind

To remind

Climbed up onto Fort Rock

And I looked unto the town

The aquifer works so hard

To consecrate the ground

All the way to Wagontire

Just a shimmer in the haze

All the way to Wagontire

No one's beggin' us to stay

It's breathin' time

In Christmas Valley

Herons fly by night

And crash into the pines

And when we're gone

From Christmas Valley

No one will remember you

Leave nothin' to remind

To remind

If what you want is tarpaper

Blown off in the wind

If what you want is tarpaper

Then hold here to the end

Sister says in Lewiston

Three rivers come to meet

She'll get us jobs in a restaurant

We can stagger home each night

It's breathin' time

In Christmas Valley

Herons fly by night

And crash into the pines

And when we're home

From Christmas Valley

No one will remember you

Leave nothin' to remind

To remind
