Arthur Kill Songtext
von Boyscott

Then my bones cracked
After I dove in without you
Off Arthur kill
Where we′d swim all afternoon

In the shallows
Off kill van kull
From the port of Staten Island
To Perth Amboy
Where if we breathe in
What trees breathe out
Well, I thought I knew then
What I still don't know

Then my bones cracked
After I dove in without you
Off Arthur kill
Where we′d swim all afternoon


Over jutting limbs
Buried by nor'easter winds
With silver lining the marshes
In the strangest place
That I've ever been

Bones cracked after I dove
Below
Below
Sundown
Along the shore
Tides ebb and flow
Ghosts of New York
I took the long way home
Past the cemetery
I wouldn′t trade it for anything

Then my bones cracked
After I dove in without you
Off Arthur kill
Where we′d swim all afternoon

Oh no


Then my bones cracked after
With you
Then my bones cracked after
With you
Yeah but what comes after
For you and me?
