lyrics

Packing up the place, I'll be making light
tossing things away I once held to my
beating breast to save

Once a joy and pride, now a throw aside
oh its edges I carved by my bedside light

Emptying, found some shavings in a drawer
and the tool I use to carve

Swept it all up and I held onto see
if one day I could identify

Sure bent like steel with a sheen that was more
like silver, white gold bonafide

On my way
to a welder I know to be good at his trade
sure that he'd know but I threw em' away

I threw em' away
don't know what came over me
I tossed em' riverside free
don't know what came over

Saw an eddy
wash up steady
and it swirled my way, it swirled my way

Saw the eddy
yeah it swirled on my way
yeah I tossed them riverside free
