about

Written by: Jesse Sykes, Spooky American Music BMI (adm. by SONY/ATV Tunes LLC)

lyrics

Doralee, there's water in the basement.
Saturday, you'll be sleeping in the tree.

Gone are the weeds that you tended to like children.
Gone are the days, and the distance between.

Doralee, there's gravel in your bathtub.
The fish swim free, looking for their ocean moon.

You once loved a man whose heart was big & open.
He said he could see, the beauty in us all.

Doralee, there are flies among the dead now.
The fiish swim free, looking for their ocean moon.
You once loved a man whose heart was big & open.
He said he could see, the beauty in us all.
He said he could see the beauty
in us all.
