Big Red Machine - New Auburn lyrics

[Verse 1: Anaïs Mitchell] Every time I drive up on fifty-three I'm seeing sideways up ahead of me There's little lakes, there's little fountains There's little molehills made out of mountains There's little prayers that I perceive, mmm [Verse 2: Anaïs Mitchell] Every time I drive up on fifty-four It goes past Mick's and Dick's general store There goes the signal and it's dropped for miles There goes the static at the top of the dial [Chorus: Anaïs Mitchell & Justin Vernon] Every wild plan screamed it By only a hundred years, a way-man Who am I to witness, who am I to see Who am I to notice which way a tree Falling alone fall silently [Verse 3: Anaïs Mitchell] Half a mile later, just past the sign There's a Winnebago, an Econoline I smell the lake on up aways I know the exit and the parking place [Chorus: Anaïs Mitchell & Justin Vernon] We used to swim out in the sun We were swimming out there under heaven We were too young to have been unforgiven [Verse 4: Anaïs Mitchell] Who are you to listen, who are you to care? Just someone who knows me from anywhere Where do we come from out of thin air? I hear you whisper in the back of my hair
