Saunders Ferry Lane

[Verse 1]
It's 66 and cloudy here 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 creakin' boards of the empty dock are the only sounds I hear
The sign on the catfish stand says "Closed 'til Spring"
Summer drowned in the frozen lake as winter came to life
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
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, 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 an icy winter wind
I find no present comfort for my pain
No gentle arms to hold me now, I know there's nothin' worse
Than a day alone in Saunders Ferry Lane
A day alone in Saunders Ferry Lane

[Verse 5]
It's 32 and raining here this evening
I'll make a bet that rain will turn to snow
It's hard to see through the tears
And I almost missed the turn
The easy way from Saunders Ferry Lane
The easy way from Saunders Ferry Lane
