[00:00.15]These united states
[00:00.66]Dug him in the dirt
[00:20.37]Before you know there's goes his ghost again
[00:24.84]It disappears and comes in close again
[00:29.64]It comes again and each time closer in
[00:34.17]It goes again and he is gone
[00:38.85]Before he knew it there was trembling light
[00:43.47]The tide just so under the moon aligned
[00:48.06]It comes again and entering his eyes
[00:52.71]It goes again and he is gone
[01:03.63]We dug him in the dirt when he died
[01:10.11]With our gloves soft and white
[01:17.46]We dug him in the dirt when he died
[01:21.78]Yes but swearing he'd rise with that tide
[01:26.52]And come bearing his burden of light
[01:30.03]Just as soft and as white
[01:36.12]And a bystander sighed if we measure a life
[01:40.86]At all it must not be with time
[01:50.40]Before you know there goes his ghost again
[01:55.89]It disappears and comes in close again
[01:59.79]It comes again and each time closer in
[02:04.29]It goes again and he is gone
[02:08.91]Before we knew it he had up and went
[02:13.47]The coming of the crows coincident
[02:16.44]A moment black and blue and heaven sent
[02:22.71]We go again and we are gone
[02:30.99]We dug him in the dirt when he died
[02:41.49]With our gloves soft and white
[02:47.52]We dug him in the dirt when he died
[02:52.11]As the autumn air vied for our minds
[02:56.40]And those birds above circled in tight
[03:00.06]Weathered wings black as white
[03:06.27]And a bystander sighed if we measure a life
[03:10.95]At all it must not be with time
