It must have been our crooked start that chipped me out of place[00:00:00]

And that put me on a train to who knows where[00:00:06]

But looking out the window with the weight of my disgrace[00:00:12]

Looking for what[00:00:18]

I didn't care[00:00:20]

But the little town was greater and old just like bethlehem[00:00:24]

I said[00:00:31]

I'll stop right where I am[00:00:32]

Bellingham[00:00:34]

And standing at the station[00:00:47]

A stranger in the rain[00:01:01]

She was calling out a name that wasn't mine[00:01:03]

She grabbed me by the shoulders[00:01:10]

And I shuddered in surprise[00:01:12]

But she seemed to recognize me alright[00:01:15]

And maybe I believed that she was there looking for me[00:01:21]

And maybe I just wanted to be found[00:01:27]

But I didn't try to clarify[00:01:33]

No[00:01:36]

I just let her leave[00:01:36]

And she closed the trunk and drove me to her house[00:01:39]

She'd been waiting for so long[00:01:45]

She said[00:01:48]

Oh[00:01:48]

I knew that you would come[00:01:49]

But she knows not who I am[00:01:52]

Bellingham[00:01:58]

The whole town dreamed of steamer fleets[00:02:19]

The sultry August day[00:02:22]

When the first ship cleared the panama canal[00:02:24]

For the shipping lanes would mend and change their fortunes and their fates[00:02:30]

Well[00:02:36]

I'm glad that they can't see what I see now[00:02:36]

For there's rubble and driftwood[00:02:42]

Where they pulled their dimes to pay for the most majestic dock in the pugid sound[00:02:45]

And when they cut the ribbon[00:02:54]

The county brass band played[00:02:57]

What a sad moment it seems they struck up now[00:02:59]

No one ever could say why[00:03:06]

But oh[00:03:08]

The ships just passed on by[00:03:09]

And they still don't understand[00:03:13]

And how long did I think I could keep up the masquerade[00:03:16]

And how much did she know it was a lie[00:03:22]

When every bond I'd ever made[00:03:27]

I'd broken or betrayed[00:03:30]

What made me think that I could step into a life that wasn't mine[00:03:32]

I wrote a note and slipped away[00:03:39]

It said[00:03:42]

Oh[00:03:42]

I just can't explain[00:03:43]

But it's all been a show[00:03:46]

Bellingham[00:03:49]
