Gin Blossoms - Brackish Water

Gin Blossoms - Brackish Water

I heard something I never could have thought would ever exist
Coming home was only a myth
I saw something can't make it up but could never forget
Seeing only what the water reflects
Seems all right, should have known
I don't care if you're not alone
In the brackish waters of home
Reasoning what I had lost
Watching the ? rain falling down
Where we went around
Falling to brackish sound
Trees and the crabgrass only look covered by time and the moss
Hoping for the time we had lost
Seems that now I've had my say, should never be ?
Coming home was always a joke
Reasoning what I had lost
Watching the Washington rain falling down
Where we went around
Falling to brackish sound

Thanks for this post...I think Robin's voice has gotten better with the years...even though it sounded great back in '93...wow, that seems like forever ago and and a different world. Oh, well...good times.

love this song. Think i started to hum it before i could find it. Thank you for posting

[jrock2264]

Uhh, yeah I was trying to sing the song in my head while listening to this one...hard to do. Actually, I think it's "Learning the Hard Way." I have the disc..somewhere...thanks.

[andy3576]

He says it on "Come On Hard."

[jrock2264]

Robin uses the term "brackish water" in a song on the newest CD. Can't remember which song right now....Now I know where it came from. Thanks!

[spdrpig]

I love this song! Did dougie write this? This is from the bedroom sessions I believe

[jdtink19]

this is absolutely great...thank you for posting...wish i could find it...

[MrPrestoTV]

I believe the missing word is "contaminated"

[bag1234567]

Soooooo good.. thanks for posting. I'm going crazy trying to find where this is from though.

All i could find was something called "Soundtrack Exclusives & Rarities Album" which is a bit of a dead end. Any help?

[spindoctorsrule]

Awesome. Thanks for posting.
