Sun Kil Moon - Among the Leaves (alt version) lyrics

A pillow lays on cold cement A blanket by a broken vent She's there a while And then she's gone I'm away for weeks Arrive at night She hears my steps Turns off the light and runs No mind at all, more space than I need It's just me among the weeds Among the ghosts Among the leaves We've never met but she's a girl Romance paper books The floor is covered In long blonde curls On afternoons I walk the graves The rusted cars, the mine shaft caves See a girl sadly unkempt A child of neglect Under moons I pa** the tombs Cross the highways, smell the fumes See a girl frighteningly gaunt Somebody didn't want How do I tell her I don't care If she sleeps downstairs? I see her on my errand runs Looking nervous like a young Mia Farrow Walk along the gas stops Window browsing pawn shops Guns, bows and arrows Up on past the Halfway house Past the signs Eighty South bu*tercup and Carrows Drinking Wild Irish Rose At the dead end of the road Sleeping with the sparrows When evening comes I play guitar For the planets and the stars I leave the porch light on Like I do when I'm gone Winter, spring, summer, fall Basement's yours, have a ball There's always room for you there Really baby I don't care
