The Drone Lyrics

John & Mary The Drone

In a boat along the river, the sails
You were sailing old and out with the new
And I remember days when so happily we sailed
The paddle on my arms and along my hands

We were late,
Delayed,
Far away

"Never a day was filled with work" was said to you
The words, words, words that we didn't mean
And I rehearsed the scene where I watched you growing old
The night the love stars crossed and we didn't see

You're the hole in my soul
And I could never come back

Now we are in a way, far away,
On broken strings starting to play
And I've come this far just to hear your voice in song again,
The harmony sentenced to stay

You're a hole in my soul
You're all alone
And I could never forget
You're a hole in my soul
I could never come back
You're a hole in my soul.
