Reservoir Road

from Heart Sounds by Abby Ahmad

/

lyrics

Called it home before I could speak
Hiding out before I could seek
Just a wee mouse
In the brick house
Just off Reservoir Road

'Twas the wood that rooted me
Flowering on my family tree
Learned to know how
In that brick house
Just off Reservoir Road

Goddamn, have a built a dam
Between my future and past
But goddamn, do I give a damn
Gonna make the moment last

Once a teller read my palm
She spoke of how I wrote my songs
On the floorboards of that big house
Just off Reservoir Road

And it was through those window panes
Grew my deepest growing pains
Yeah, what I know now
From that big house
Just off Reservoir Road

Goddamn, have I built a dam
Between history and hope
But goddamn, do I give a damn
Gonna let the water flow

So, my true love
He and I
Joined our hands under bluest sky
Took a big vow
At the big house
Just off Reservoir Road

And in time
See, I have found
Sometimes you build
Sometimes you tear it down
Something I learned how
From the big house
Just off Reservoir Road
