The morning of the flood It was the morning linda died While i was busy cutting diamonds With the corners of my life We drew a full house on the river It was erased before our eyes We know although things last forever They must change their shape sometimes I am safe & i am sorry In the evergreens at night & I am looking through your window I am staring at your mind When linda dies and linda dies and linda dies It seems to me forever I've been waiting in this tree & So i go now by goliath I'm my favorite enemy We are careless with our wishing With the truths we tell through teeth You be careful what you pay for When the soul is your receipt They are boarding up the phone They are boarding up their eyes You will board open your hands I will board the kites of time Deliver me tomorrow Care of sleep, my moving boat, But it can take me only so far Only so far yet to go When linda dies and linda dies and linda dies We have cut through most of georgia Not 200 miles to go We are all buried in the jordan Turns our spirits white like snow There is a door within its palm It will not hit us where we go
