Silver Heart

from Thanksgiving by The Whale & The Warbler

/

lyrics

I left my boy back in West Virginia, I told him:
"Son, don't forget your Dad. He's in a cell down in old El Paso and he won't be back until the rebels come. Tell your mother it's best to be faithful, God's still watching at time's like these, in his trees twist the little spirits of all them cowboys who just won't leave. On my neck her little heart sits. It shines like silver, it's cold as stone. When I hold it I feel her weight shift, I feel her wings spread, I feel her folds"
