lyrics
The fish crates baked by noon on the pier Your boots on tile, my room stayed here Ferris wheel rusted above the fairground gate I counted ferry horns and learned to wait The bakery shut at half past four Tomato plants leaned through the wire screen door Your train left south with the June dust raised I nailed the map to the wall and stayed I stayed I stayed I stayed I stayed With the peeled wall and the sink full of rain July emptied out past the bus depot bend Blue towels hung still on the hostel fence The harbor stones held heat till night I ate cold cod by the yard lamp light The arcade went dark by the third of August Kerosene in the shed, and the hinges rusted Your names were chalk on the station board I locked the gate and took one more chore I stayed I stayed I stayed I stayed With the peeled wall and the sink full of rain When the last boat cut its wake at dawn I heard the gulls over empty lawns No map, no van, no breath in the hall Just my hand on the latch, and the tide on the wall I stayed I stayed I stayed I stayed With the peeled wall and the sink full of rain
