rhett miller - ellie on the wharf lyrics
ellie was forever on the wharf she knew the ships by name
painted them so many times she saw them in her dreams
painted them so many times she couldn’t help but see them in her dreams
out on the horizon they were dots they all looked the same
that far out they’re no more than a fl!cker of a hope
that far out they’re no more than a fl!cker of a disappearing hope
elliе was a stranger when we mеt and she’s a stranger still
wed to me in spirit if not in the eyes of god
wed to watching ships roll in and wondering if i’ll come strolling off
oh will you wait for me oh will you wait for me ellie on the wharf
‘cos i’ll still be yours when i come back from the war
ellie is forever on a wharf in a fever dream
i see her there in silhouette a whisper of a girl
there she is in silhouette a half+forgotten whisper of a girl
oh will you wait for me oh will you wait for me ellie on the wharf
‘cos i’ll still be yours when i come back from the war
yeah i’ll still be yours if i come back from the war
