My darlin' I can't keep this up
You have your whole life ahead of you
And I am the disturbance that nobody needs
I guess I'm the black, and you're the blue
I know you can do better than this
I know there ain't a lot I can do
I sure as hell am toxic and I sure as hell am strong
But not strong enough to say goodbye to you
Why have I fallen into feeling
Like I've fallen for you again?
Yes, I think I've met you here before:
The reoccurring spirit of the long lost man
Well, I can't save you this time around
I'm hurting and I'm healing every day
So take your hands off of me, I can't see this through
It's not supposed to go this way
And I'm going to that mountain
And I'm going to that sea, yeah
I'm going to that forest far away
And ain't nobody, gonna catch me (x4)

I have listened to bluegrass and old-timey style banjo music for many years. Nora Brown has the most poetic interpretation of these styles that I have heard so far. She is the John Fahey of banjo (but also with striking vocals). brit_b
