A spring remembered
The taste of gin
An eyelet light upon our skin
Your form it lingers
I trace just where you’ve been
The songs we sang I’ll sing again
When it breaks down
Oh babe let’s try
To see the beauty in all the fading
I saw the river
Thick with mud
Break through the banks and run
And I confess I liked it
I cheered the flood
When the water hit the wall and won
When it breaks down
Oh babe let’s try
To see the beauty in all the fading
The roads are endless
They seem to grow
Vines that wind around the world
And though I hate it
To leave my home
I love that car when I need to go
When it breaks down
Oh babe let’s try
To see the beauty in all the fading
And O, Kentucky
Stays in my mind
It’s sweet to be five years behind
That’s where I’ll be
When the seas rise
Holding my dear friends and drinking wine
When it breaks down
Oh babe let’s try
To see the beauty in all the fading
When it breaks down
When the stakes get high
To see the beauty in all the fading
