Letra Cobscook Bay - The Mountain Goats

Cobscook Bay

We’re alone most of the time these days.\nJill used to come by, but she went away.\nAnd gail used to come around and trash the joint,\nBut she moved off to dana point.\nAnd you went along, just for the ride,\nAnd you both committed suicide.\nAnd day is breaking over cobscook bay.\nAnd I’ve never seen anything like it in my life.\nCow gave birth and her calves are snow white\nThe huddle up close together at night.\nAnd the mamma cow leans down and cleans her young.\nLicking their faces with her tongue,\nAnd unmarked airplanes buzz the air.\nAnd you’re falling off that cliff somewhere in California\nWhich I’ve never seen.\nI put the pieces all together, but I don’t know what they\nmean,\nAnd day is breaking over cobscook bay.\nAnd I’ve never seen anything like it in my life
