Jamie Dear

(C. Woodsmith) The sun sets at quarter ‘till 4 The snow is a'piling at my door Snowed in but I don’t seem mind What I needed was a little bit of time To put the letters that you wrote me in the fire Oh and they ain’t comin back Where did you go my Jaime dear Sittin by the window with a single tear Swamps on fire and the leather leaf Is burnin like the letters that you send to me Where did you go my darling May Set like the sun on a winters day Cold front frost on the window pane Bottle of whiskey and a pile of shame If I had a space for my gloom There wouldn’t be big enough a room All that snow outside my door And all I expected was a little more Love from you, but I got shown the door Oh and I ain’t comin back Where did you go my Jaime dear Sittin by the window with a single tear Swamps on fire and the leather leaf Is burnin like the letters that you send to me Where did you go my darling May Set like the sun on a winters day Cold front frost on the window pane Bottle of whiskey and a pile of shame By the time that spring rolls around My heart will have melted off the ground I’ll throw out the ashes from the stove Bits of your letters and things that I let go Try to keep myself moving on the road Oh and I ain’t comin back Where did you go my Jaime dear Sittin by the window with a single tear Swamps on fire and the leather leaf Is burnin like the letters that you send to me Where did you go my darling May Set like the sun on a winters day Cold front frost on the window pane Bottle of whiskey and a pile of shame
