My worn out shoes
Yeah, but I sure could use
One salty dime, one salty dime
Quite why she went I can't decide
On some distant shore
I'm a tumbleweed, I'm a spit roast
A whispering field of grass
Or some such brave bullshit
Oh, my darlin' Kathleen
Trucks are roaring by I'm a red ghost
Just close your eyes it won't take long
Telling myself I could be strong
Oh, my darlin' Kathleen
On a fresh made bed but I ain't got
Clean linen ironed
My blowing hair all a quiver
That whispers out your name
Oh, my darlin' Kathleen
One plate of food steaming and hot
I gazed so long into the great aching sky

That my rushing blood was a river
It seemed that I, I wasn't here no more
My eyes two stars
It won't hurt a bit
Oh, my darlin' Kathleen
Lay down my head by the wayside
That murmurs as you pass
Songwriter: David Gray
Cars they sound like waves that are breaking
In their tail light gleam
Just turning in your flame
