Greg MacPherson - West St. James lyrics
[Greg MacPherson - West St. James lyrics]
I met a man from west St.James
We talked about the exposion at Orest's
Barber shop and St.James highschool
I looked down at Saskatchewan like a yello
Green tile floor we were standing on"
Did you know the west coast is
Gonna fall into the ocean someday?"
(simpler down there)
He said" My friend I hope you don't
Mind but I have to ask you
Are you leaving behind something that's not
Worth coming back to? We're the
Same collection of thoughts and accidents
No matter where we are"
(simpler down there)
She was a picture of frustration standing all
Alone in an empty bus station
Another summer gone
After a 7 hour delay in Saskatoon yesterday
I'm looking out at the
Clouds and we're flying
Over a storm and a dozen little farms
There's a fire station at the top of
Her street and three rinks where
(simpler down there) One leaves for
Something else to say
One looks around and walks away
One hour from now I'll be looking
Down at the rocky mountains
(simpler down there)
