Pour Your Meaning

Words and Music Copyright Robert Edgar

Wooden dock soaks in the river
Mullet grass slides o'er the brink
Outboard motor fuel slick floating
Hold on while I fill my drink.

Herons pose like gray morticians
Needlefish swim on the grass
What's forever now is ending
What the hell has come to pass?

We didn't come this far.
We didn't work this hard.
We didn't keep our aim so true
To not learn this from you.

Vapor trail before the fire
Wooden chairs before the grass
Letters sent before Chicago.
Pour your meaning on me.
Pour your meaning on me.
