Carrie & Lowell

Lyrics

3, 4 [Verse 1] Carrie and Lowell Such a long time ago Like a dead horse Meadowlark, drive your arrow [Chorus 1] Season of hope (after the flood) Valentine, spurn my sorrow Head on the floorboards (covered in blood) Drunk as a horsefly Climb on the mattress pad Twist my arm [Verse 2] Under the pear tree Shadows and light conspiring Covered bridge, I scream Cottage Grove shade, invite me [Chorus 2] I will bow down (Dido's Lament) Lord of the ancient waters From the backyard (as far as she went) Carrie surprised me Erebus on my back My lucky charm [Bridge] Carried by stones Fairyland all around us Like a dead horse Sign of your children's fever [Chorus 3] Carrie, come home (Thorazine's friend) Holding your hands with opal Like a dead horse (Shall we ascend?) Flight of the mayfly Ephemera on my back She breaks my arm
