Lyrics
I was a wanderer of the land
I walked with wonder and the sun in my hand
when I get home I know the man I will greet
he is a corpse and i’m a shell of a me
I look around for something pristine
I wonder what that thing could mean
I wonder what that thing could mean
mmm
(chorus)
Janie put me down easy
Janie put me down easy
I let the flowers look to me in return
Their growth marks time and my emotions churn
I’m older now than when i was sixteen
the old pear tree is not divine as it seemed
(bridge)
I hold it still i hold myself so still
I look away i keep my eyes away
I like a bottle and i don’t wanna break
I don’t wanna break
I don’t wanna break
I don’t wanna break
Janie put me down easy
Janie put me down easy
Janie
