I've been wandering through the valley
I’ve been singing through all my broken songs
I've been nailing all the endings
Especially the parts that I used to get wrong
Just like waves falling backwards, just like devils going straight
I ain't saying that I’m leaving, all I know is that I'm coming home late

Oh, oh, oh, Savannah, oh my child
They might say that I can't handle ya, but don't you know they lie

I've been stretching across this country
Been adding to the storm with every breath
And it's the darkest that it's ever been
But we both know that means I'm at my best
Just like sharks swimming backwards, just like angels raising hell
I’m all alone in the desert, trying to remember all the words to your spell

Oh, oh, oh, Savannah, oh my dear
They might say that I can’t handle ya, oh but they ain't here
