lyrics

I can feel tomorrow's rain
Where they pinned my shoulder back together
I walk the dirt track into town
To telephone Emma for her birthday.

I'm hoping she'll invite me down
To visit this winter at her and Jon's place
Like maybe enough water
Has finally passed beneath our bridges.

When she couldn't fall asleep
I'd sing "the night of the Johnstown Flood."
Later after Jen was born,
She'd sing the words with me.

When we spoke in May
There was a warmth to her demeanor
She asked for my address here
To send a picture of Christopher

The rocking horse I'm carving
Needs a second coat of paint
My shoulder aches from sanding
But I'd like to finish it for Christmas Day.
