Wiretree Doctor
He was going to the doctor
Been trying to make some time
Didn't know what he'd gonna find on the other side
Then he'd left in her direction
A force began to take his weary mind
So he pulled into the station
And walked on off the train
A shade of Green began to fill the moon-lit sky
He was taking his own time
Said the conductor looked like an old friend of mine
All the Sailors come and go
In this town on the east coast
They leave a lot of lovers
But they don't forget the the time they had
My Father was one of them
And my mother she worked just to keep him in
She's in need of a new friend
Someone who would let her in
And was going under pressure, but didn't know what she gonna find
He was taken by her eyes
And the north wind blowing down from the coastline
They found their pot of gold
In their lover's broken soul
Digs all he can until the seeds come flying away
He won't hurt her heart again
Until the gray-blue skies open and let him in
