lyrics

He turns his collar to the icy wind
As the bell tolls for time again
He stumbles staggers and sways
All alone on his weary way

He stalls a while beneath the sycamore tree
Caught by a falling leaf
That holds and confines, a ghost to remind him
Of her face and the sweet memories

Chorous

And it’s the age old never again
As the cold night cuts to his skin
And Shanks’s pony don’t wanna go home
Oh no not another long lonely
Crooked mile home

Middle
And every nights been the same since she went away
Losers in love play desperate games
But this time he thought it was real
The way she used to say do you feel like I feel

Repeat Chorous

He sees her face interlaced with a blackbird’s tune
That sings in the light of the icy full moon
But its sweet song just cuts to the core
In the silence of his open door

Last Chorous

And he sighs
Oh no never again
As the silence cuts to his bones
And he knows come tomorrow
He’ll beg steal or borrow
And it’s gonna be another long lonely
Crooked mile home

It’s gonna be another long lonely
crooked mile home
