Written by Bill Mallonee for CyBrenJoJosh (BMI) ©1995

lyrics

i've got holes in my pocket
i've got sand in my shoes
i've been walkin' to the river
i've been looking for you
in between the seams and requiems
that just drag on and on
already gone

i'm a garden of roses
a graveyard of remorse
i'm a drunken sailor
trying to steer a straight course
on the edge of memory
of an ocean deep and long
already gone

i was dying of thirst
i was starving to death
looking for salvation
but not holding my breath
ah you come and save this drowning man
in the undertow so long
already gone
