Drowned And Died Lyrics - Peddlin' Dreams - Maria Mckee

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
