Like William Mckinley Lyrics

Like William Mckinley lyrics

I got a letter; it came in the mail today

I saw by the stamp it was
written an ocean away

No need to open it, I know what it must say

I’ll just go back to the dream I was having 

Before love went
astray



I’ll sit on my porch like William McKinley 

And I’ll
let the world come to me

And if it’s too busy, I really don’t mind
and

There’s no place I want to be



Now and again, I will open
a window and 

Stare at the overcast sky

And put you away in a drawer
in my mind

And I’ll just bid all of my troubles goodbye



The
country ‘round here is deserted; there’s no one at all

People come here
in the summer and leave in the fall

You followed after them, disappeared
into the night

Now all that’s left is the footprint you made

In the
mud, frozen in white



I’ll sit on my porch like William McKinley


And I’ll let the world come to me

And if it’s too busy, I really
don’t mind and

There’s no place I’ll want to be



Now and
again, I will open and window and 

Stare at the overcast sky

And
put you away in a drawer in my mind

And I’ll just bid all of my troubles
goodbye
