about

Lloyd recounts a well-known ghost story in this moody, yet catchy tune about a logging family from rural Ontario, set just minutes away from the cabin where he has been frequenting since he was just a young buck

lyrics

I said don't go outside tonight, it's far too cold
I'll be back in just a while, keep the cabin door closed

My oh my, the storm was getting raw
My little girl, she went out to find our dog
I looked outside, twilight was turning black
I grabbed my light, I had to race the storm and bring my daughter back

Why did you go, why did you go I told you girl to stay at home
Now you're freezing, all alone, and in the dark
You oughtta know, you oughtta know that I'll turn every single stone
There's no way I'll let us forever be apart

All that night I looked for you
Days turned weeks, months, years, as my anguish grew
To this day, Ive never stopped
I'll search until my own ghost drops

Oh my my, the storm was getting raw
My little girl, she went out to find our dog
I looked outside, twilight was turning black
I grabbed my light, I had to race the storm and bring my daughter back

Why did you go, why did you go I told you girl to stay at home
Now you're freezing, all alone, and in the dark
You oughtta know, you oughtta know that I'll turn every single stone
There's no way I'll let us forever be apart

Why did you go, why did you go I told you girl to stay at home
Now you're freezing, all alone, and in the dark
You oughtta know, you oughtta know that I'll turn every single stone
There's no way I'll let us forever be apart
