cherry blossom blues

from no loss of "isinglass blues" by the salt wells

/

lyrics

morning train don't come around early
and yesterday, younger brother died of thirst
cherry blossoms are blooming all around you
but they leave a pile of cherry pits or worse

you left behind a comic book you made me
left it in a town I'd never been
cherry blossoms are blooming all around me
waiting for my friend on up around the bend

a line of cars that takes you where they take you
a younger son who comes in not last but first
cherry blossoms are blooming through the windows
of this train i'm steering in reverse

why'd you have to lose what mother give you?
buried in a place i'll never see
cherry blossoms falling from the branches
are ghosts of a rainier cherry tree
ghosts of a rainier cherry tree
ghosts of a rainier cherry tree
