A Pocket Full of Shells

A Pocket Full of Shells -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

And 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
