craig finn - plattsburgh lyrics
she said she isn’t spiritual
just really likes the rituals
it helps her think about herself
small and insignificant
he says she matters tons to him
and he can barely sleep some nights
loves her so d-mn much sometimes
it makes him sort of dizzy
and they park down off the causeway
and they brush away the bottles
and he spreads out the blanket
and the breeze blows off the water
and he’s only just in jacksonville
for two years and a couple months
plattsburgh just got strange after
his cousin shot his gun off
and he says lisa i’m not joking
i’d be dead if i didn’t meet you
there’s a few things back in plattsburgh
i just can’t go back to
he says lisa, i’m not kidding
i want to be your husband
just grant me some forgiveness
someone died that didn’t have to
she grew up in the area
she’s never been much anywhere
but they fly in from all over
just to be here where we’re sitting
and that seems like a good sign
and that seemed like a reason
and she likes the way the sunshine
makes her hair light in the summer
and she loves to go out dancing
she never eats much dinner
and her first husband played baseball
and the next one was a monster
and she’s finally gotten over
the panic and the nightmares
so she can’t even care about
what happened up in plattsburgh
she says marvin, why so anxious?
i’m just finally feeling normal
let’s just sit here on this blanket
feel the breeze blow off the water
the way the wind makes waves in sawgr-ss
sunshine as it dances on her skin
and when you take him as your savior
he forgives us for our tresp-sses and sins
and when he gets home in the evening
he writes a letter to his cousin
who’s just waiting out a sentence
up in central pennsylvania
he said i think you’d like the weather here
the breeze blows off the water
i met a perfect woman
and i’m gonna try to marry her
when you get out, come down here
stay with us until you’re settled
lisa goes to m-ss on sundays
we’ll get breakfast ready
and when she gets back we’ll surprise her
we’ll sit down at the table
breeze blows off the water
and everything is normal
