I kicked you out into the cold, stale February snow,
Cuz your angry words were more than I could handle
It's summer now and we both know it's the sun that warms the earth
And a fumbled love lies dead in the jaws of winter
These rolling clouds on bluest skies, the prairie dreams,
Of the boiling tides that charge the shores of them Spanish Banks
With you in mind I head out east to find the Great Divide
While the life I leave behind's still warm and breathing,
and I cross that line, to you
So how can I get through to you?
Seems so much more than I can do
But if I never make it to Van couver again,
I hope you'll under stand
I still recall them nights,
Was it the August heat,
that made us want to fight
As we rolled our blankets out on the floor of his grandparents place
We shared a song and we both knew,
I'd never lay again beside you
So how can I get through to you?
Was it my honesty, that never suited you?
Does our burned out bridge still glow?
Does my tired body show,
that I still care?
Cuz I see traces of you every where
Cuz your angry words were more than I could handle
It's summer now and we both know it's the sun that warms the earth
And a fumbled love lies dead in the jaws of winter
These rolling clouds on bluest skies, the prairie dreams,
Of the boiling tides that charge the shores of them Spanish Banks
With you in mind I head out east to find the Great Divide
While the life I leave behind's still warm and breathing,
and I cross that line, to you
So how can I get through to you?
Seems so much more than I can do
But if I never make it to Van couver again,
I hope you'll under stand
I still recall them nights,
Was it the August heat,
that made us want to fight
As we rolled our blankets out on the floor of his grandparents place
We shared a song and we both knew,
I'd never lay again beside you
So how can I get through to you?
Was it my honesty, that never suited you?
Does our burned out bridge still glow?
Does my tired body show,
that I still care?
Cuz I see traces of you every where
