Latter Days (feat. Anaïs Mitchell) - Big Red Machine/Anaïs Mitchell

How long is what you asked

How long do you think it's gonna last

You at the corner store

You were stocking up before the storm

Stacked yourself against the odds

Talkin back to an act of god

You and your clever mouth

You were laughing when the lights went out

I recall it all forever

How it found us where we lay

With our arms around each other

In the latter days in the latter days

How high is what you said

How high do you think it's gonna get

You at the water's edge

On the jetty when you were a kid

Passed around a plastic cup

Passed out spinning in the house where you grew up

You in your childhood bed

And the wildest dream you ever had

You recall it all forever

How it found you where you lay

And you called out for your brother

In the latter days

I recall it all forever

How it found us where we lay

With our arms around each other

In the latter days

How high do you

How high do you

I recall it all forever

How we sheltered in our place

And we called each other lovers

In the latter days

I recall it all forever

How there was no hiding place

So we called each other brothers

In the latter days in the latter days
