Jamie Dear - Della Mae

The sun sets at quarter till 4

The snow is a’piling at my door

Snowed in but I don t seem mind

What I needed was a little bit of time

To put the letters that you wrote me in the fire

Oh and they ain t comin back

Where did you go my Jaime dear

Sittin by the window with a single tear

Swamps on fire and the leather leaf

Is burnin like the letters that you send to me

Where did you go my darling May

Set like the sun on a winters day

Cold front frost on the window pane

Bottle of whiskey and a pile of shame

If I had a space for my gloom

There wouldn t be big enough a room

All that snow outside my door

And all I expected was a little more

Love from you, but I got shown the door

Oh and I ain t comin back

Where did you go my Jaime dear

Sittin by the window with a single tear

Swamps on fire and the leather leaf

Is burnin like the letters that you send to me

Where did you go my darling May

Set like the sun on a winters day

Cold front frost on the window pane

Bottle of whiskey and a pile of shame

By the time that spring rolls around

My heart will have melted off the ground

I ll throw out the ashes from the stove

Bits of your letters and things that I let go

Try to keep myself moving on the road

Oh and I ain t comin back

Where did you go my Jaime dear

Sittin by the window with a single tear

Swamps on fire and the leather leaf

Is burnin like the letters that you send to me

Where did you go my darling May

Set like the sun on a winters day

Cold front frost on the window pane

Bottle of whiskey and a pile of shame
