Down here in the salt mine
I’m only helping with the tears I cry
Got me working that 9 to 5
I lost my love but the fault was mine
Down here at the fault line
Crossroads where the worlds collide
Lake Huron, Ontario
2000 feet under the earth I go
You were right, the fruit rot on the vine
Not all things age like fine wine
Took my time back when you were mine
What a waste, what a waste, what a waste
Life don’t always give you what you want
Dug for oil but they just found salt
But old Sam was a businessman
He loaded salt into his caravan
I never had a mind for that
Now its rotting in an old mine shaft
If I could ever win you back
We’d fly away on the cloud of a smokestack
You were right, I wasted my time
Trying to dig through to the other side
Every day I shovel my way
A little further from the light
Down here in the salt mine
Only helping with the tears I cry
Got me working that 9 to 5
Lost my soul but the fault was mine

Intentionally
Lighting candles, burning sage Turn my bad curse to good days, to good days Finding new words just to say All the old things that don’t change, they just don’t change …
Irish Goodbye
I need some advice From somebody who loves me Someone who’s been here before I’ve been rolling dice Been taking my chances But the stakes aren’t as low as before I think …
