Saunders Ferry Lane

[Verse 1]
It's sixty-six and cloudy this mornin’
I'll make a bet those clouds will turn to rain
The weather's rusted out the sign
And I almost missed the turn
That’ll take me down to Saunders Ferry Lane

[Verse 2]
The creekin' boards of the empty dock
Are the only sounds I hear
The sign on the catfish stand says, "Closed 'til spring"
The summer drown in the frozen lake
As the winter came to life

[Refrain]
And nothing moves in Saunders Ferry Lane
Nothing moves in Saunders Ferry Lane

[Verse 3]
Raindrops mingle with the leaves
That tumble to the ground
As I find my way to the spot
Where we once lay
But the grass is dead
The laughter's gone
And the birds have flown away

[Refrain]
It's awful cold in Saunders Ferry Lane
Awful cold in Saunders Ferry Lane

[Bridge]
The gentle arms that held me
And made me want tomorrow, now are gone
We found so much comfort
In the way we loved each other
Then the angels came
As quietly as the dawn

[Verse 4]
Standing by the water
In the icy winter wind
I find no present comfort for my pain
No gentle arms to hold me now
I know there's nothin' worse

[Refrain]
Than a day alone in Saunders Ferry Lane
A day alone in Saunders Ferry Lane

[Outro]
It's thirty-two and raining this evening
I’ll make a bet that rain will turn to snow
Awful cold in Saunders Ferry Lane
