"Forest Edge" lyrics - THE TRAGICALLY HIP
I'm a rock and roller
Wary of windfall
Staying at the Get Out Now Hotel
And I want it all
The forest edge
In the deepest darkest depths
On the forest edge
With a blind, benign absentmindedness
You picked up the phone
And heard what sounded like a really big car
Revving way too hot outside
You said, "Tell me where you are?"
Forest edge
For Christ sakes it's darkness
On the edge of town
A sweet and mean unassailing sound
A dream, dream, Springsteen scene, naturally
A dream, dream, torn up in dream, naturally
You detected me shaking
Even when I wasn't shaking
Like all great relationships
This one started with an apology
Forest edge
In the deepest darkest depths
On the forest edge
With a kind, sublime absentmindedness
A dream, dream, guitar dream, naturally
A dream, dream, reoccurring dream, naturally
A dream, dream, Springsteen scene
A dream, dream, guitar dream
