Ray Flanagan - Fords of Jordan Lyrics

Death where I'm walking
Death where I stand
If you think you're talking to me
Raise your hand
'Cause there's so much yakking
In these barrooms
I can't hear myself think

And then, when there's silence
I'm faced with a voice
I wish to deny this
But I have no choice
It's made up of my father's
Father's father's
Names I barely know

I'll see ya when I see ya

There've been all kinds of signs
Of a winter regret
I tell you remember
How I could make you forget
The droves it comes in
The cloud it plummets
Leaving not much room for air

Now you're breathing heavy
Of worry and care
Of the open wound
Still left on your stare
That's begun to fester
And heal up all wrong
Walking like a three legged dog

I'll see ya when I see ya
I'll see ya when I see ya
If I ever saw you at all

When I crossed over the Fords of Jordan
I thought I could go forth and back
I never knew these holy waters I drink of you
Were under attack

Death where I'm walking
Death where I stand
I'm leaving tomorrow
And I'm forcing a hand
Through ageless shadows
Of months we rattled
Now it just looks like one big excuse

I'll see ya when I see ya
I'll see ya when I see ya
If I ever saw you at all

I never knew these holy waters I drink of you
I never knew these holy waters I drink of you
