Danielle Ate The Sandwich Where The Good Ones Go Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well I reached in the cupboard for something to feed you and I hoped that these words were enough to keep you
But the moon is so high and the stars are so bright
You could be the one that I needed

[Verse 2]
When the sun came you hit the trail like an old cowboy bent for the wild road
And so I carved your name into all the tree legs and we waited for you until dark came

[Verse 3]
I once knew a man who told a tale as tall as the mountains that he came from
And he said there's a place where all the folks wait when death strips their faces of color

[Chorus]
Are you there? (Where the good ones go?)
Are you there? (Where the good ones go?)

[Verse 4]
My grandpa said that he wandered himself off into the heart of the forest And his color still sings the engraves of his name
And he chases field mice under moonlight

[Chorus]
Are you there? (are you there where the good ones go)
Are you there? (are you there where the good ones go)

[Bridge]
Are you there where the good ones go
Can you write me a letter, could you visit home
You could rest at the foot of my bed and whisper reassurances
Because I'm not sure of anything
I'm not sure of anything

[Verse 5]
Just like the dog who lost himself gone on the farm, you are living in gardens
And the fields are so high the vegetables ripe in the place where the good ones go

[Outro]
When they're gone (Are you there where the good ones go?
When they're gone (Are you there where the good ones go?
