Overcoat And Skis

from Address Unknown by The High Strung

lyrics

OVERCOAT & SKIS

I’m traveling
With an overcoat and skis
Cause it snowed and it’s cold
And I’m in a hurry
It’s all downhill from here
I can see it clear
So there’s no need to worry

O herringbone
Tracks in the sky
And a kick with the pole
For a long glide
Following the Dog Star
Can only get you so far
Luckily I know the way by heart

All quiet now
And I’m moving forward somehow
Like a determined sparrow
Like a frozen arrow
As I come out of the drift
There’s a kind a seismic shift
And up ahead the veil begins to lift

O herringbone
Tracks in the sky
And a kick with the pole
For a long glide
Following the Dog Star
Can only get you so far
Luckily I know the way by heart

Malerman’s book Bird Box was a hit movie for Netflix.
