Mat McHugh A Pocketful of Shells song lyrics

I got a pocket full of shells,

And not much of anything else.

I got a locket full of notes,

Old melodies, uncounted votes

And it’s been so long

since I’ve seen you

And I’ve been so gone and out of my mind

And things they move on,

but I just need you

So I still wait for you most every night

When are you coming home

It’s so lonely here tonight...

Followed a trail of poison crumbs.

We got lost pretending, undone.

Then our blood fell from the clouds,

the wind it screamed, the sea it howled.

And every cold, dry morning,

crows sing of how there's ice forming on the lake.

Oh yes somebody called me, said they saw you.

Said you were looking older but just the same.

When are you coming home?

It must be freezing out today ...

And we’ll sing Galilee, we’ll sing reverie

Dance for the broken, break these chains.

We’ll sing of wrongs and lies and alibis.

We’ll take a chance and start again.

And we’ll sing Galilee, we’ll sing reverie

Dance for the broken, break these chains.

We’ll sing of wrongs and lies and alibis.

We’ll Take a chance and start again.

We’ll Take a chance and start again.

We’ll Take a chance and start again.
