Any corrections to the lyrics are welcome.

On the way to your brother's house in the valley, dear,
By the river bridge a cradle floating beside me.
In the whitest water on the banks against the stone
You will lift his body from the shore and bring him home

Oliver James washed in the rain no longer
Oliver James washed in the rain no longer

On the kitchen table that your grandfather did make
You and your delicate way will slowly clean his face
And you will remember when you rehearsed the actions of
A innocent and anxious mother full of anxious love

Oliver James washed in the rain no longer
Oliver James washed in the rain no longer

Walk with me down the beach and through the valley floor
Love for the one you know more
Love for the one you know more

Back we go to your brother's house emptier my dear
The sound of ancient voices ringing soft upon your ear

Oliver James washed in the rain no longer
Oliver James washed in the rain no longer

  • @JamesDSwinney That's EXACTLY how I feel. Every song I hear of theirs becomes my new favorite!!! What an amazing and unique band!!!! Cheers my friend

  • Every time I listen to another Fleet Foxes song, it becomes the most beautiful song I've ever heard. How is it possible that they can evoke such emotion from relatively simple melody (in this song, anyway), and such beautiful lyrics? I love it.

  • the second I saw the title of this song I completely just flashed to Oliver James, that English actor from What A Girl Wants with Amanda Bynes and Raise Your Voice with Hilary Duff. Ah, he was a total cutie. What happened to him anyway?

  • @jamesboy2008 must be proud of

  • @jamesboy2008 that is the most bullshit i ever heard in my whole life

  • I cried so much and nothing could stop my crying except Fleet Foxes<3
