Been so long since I've felt something Touch of wind, eyes full of tears There's a silence, yet I hear the low humming And a heart that hasn't moved in years New Madrid Remember When we made the Mississippi River Run backwards Sleeping faultline Shifting pieces Pretending we can't feel The rift between us Don't talk about it New Madrid ♪ There was a fire Burning after midnight But the smoke took the light away And the bells that used to sound You and I don't hear them now And the ground we tread will bury us some day New Madrid Remember when we made the Mississippi River Run backwards Sleeping faultline Shifting pieces Pretending we can't feel The rift between us Don't talk about it Oh, New Madrid New Madrid Remember when we made the Mississippi River Run backwards Sleeping faultline Shifting pieces Oh, pretending we can't feel The rift between us Don't talk about it Don't talk about it New Madrid
