This song feels like a well aged wine...such subtle notes and textures swishing through an airy pallette. A wonderful blend of lyrics and performance between three powerhouses. John Paul reminds me a bit of Dan Fogelberg...such wonderful artists.

There’s a broken down trailer for a fishing boat Abandoned in the yard A rusted out chevy for target practice On a dried out yellow lawn Lone leaf pines and kudzu vines In this forsaken home Mother son and holy ghost Hear my prayer in the dark Set the table once again For the three of us An old news paper table cloth Candles on the screened in porch Your ghosts Warned me My mind Alone There’s an old tricycle and rocking horse Lonely in the yard A rusted out chevy for target practice A dried out yellow lawn Spider-webs and abandoned nests In this forsaken home Mother son and Holy Ghost Hear the prayer in my song Ever since you went away To the greenest pasture Of the great beyond Soul rose to redemption But left me here and haunted Barely hanging on But your ghosts Warned me My mind Alone There’s a broken down trailer for a fishing boat Abandoned in the yard A rusted out chevy for target practice On a dried out yellow lawn Lone leaf pines and kudzu vines In this forsaken home Mother son and holy ghost Hear my prayer in the dark I need you (I need you) I need you (I need you) I don’t want to face this emptiness inside I need you (I need you) I need you (I need you) I need to, know that I will, meet you on the other side Praying for faith at the bottle tree Where we used to dance She whispers to me to set you free Find my deliverance From the agonies and memories Of living in the past If I don’t let go I’ll never know Life beyond skeletons Of an old tricycle and rocking horse Lonely in the yard A rusted out chevy for target practice A dried up yellow lawn Spider webs and abandoned nests In this forsaken home Mother son & Holy Ghost x3 Hear the prayer in my song Amen Amen

Re: the previously posted lyrics … it’s “kudzu vines” not “cuts of” vines

[@benholland1331]

I love this but I wish Jason sang all of this ❤❤❤

[@magroves]

I saw Paula sing the whole thing live and it was amazing. In my personal opinion she adds a lot to the song.
