Justin Vernon - A Song for a Lover of Long Ago lyrics

[Verse 1] Rain on the bar Clinging water mars Any hints of what I had Because of what I became Rain you are me Shake the memory free Can't squelch the molten soul Can't chase away the hole [Chorus] I have buried you Every place I've been You keep ending up In my shaking hands [Verse 2] Rain, sound the alarm The sting my broken arm The faintest violinist buried in my gut There are chances and choices sometimes you just have to cut [Chorus x4]
