Brother Jonathan - Salt Tracks Lyrics

Why stand over there
Will you never cry
There's no reason why my shoulder should be dry

Salt tracks down you face
Tastes like all not well
It's your season in hell

I once saw a thing
That was brighter than any scene
I could ever sing
You could say that it was made of glass
But something that beautiful
Could never crash

Light glanced off a strand
Might take more than one
Broad leaf catch the sun
And stretch out in the sand

I was once witness to a scene
That made the heavens ring
You could say that it was in the past
But something that beautiful
Will forever last

I once saw a thing
That was brighter than any scene I could ever sing
You could say that it was made of glass
But something that beautiful
Will never crash
