Like William McKinley

歌曲歌詞

I got a letter it came in the mail today

I saw by the stamp it was sent from a ocean away

No need to open it up I knew what it must say

I'll just go back to the dream I was having

Before love went astray

I'll sit on my porch like William McKinley

And I'll let the world come to me

And if it's too busy I really won't mind

And there's no place I want to be

Now and again I will open a window

And stare at the overcast sky

And put you away in a drawer in my mind

And I'll just bid all of my troubles goodbye

The country round here is deserted there's no one at all

People come here for the summer and leave in the fall

You followed after them disappeared into the night

Now all that remains is a footprint you made

In the mud frozen in white
