Lyrics

Strayed off to Mackinac
I was alone I saw
Seventy deer or more
Crossing a field

Sometimes an exodus
Captures the best of us
Sometimes an exit
Is quite an ordeal

I pray for rain
I stay the pain
I try to feel
I lie and steal

Sarah would serenade while she made lemonade
Stirring the particles into the new
While I was tearing down everything all around
She would be building; her voice would ring true

When I stepped off the bus
We were only the three of us
Me, an east Indian
And the old man

Faced with the choice
I had buried my voice
In a fury of verses
I stole from her hand.

I pray for rain
I stay the pain
I try to feel
I lie and steal
