A Pocket Full of Shells Songtext
von Mat McHugh

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
