Lyrics
You trace the I-57 bridge on my back with your fingernail.
Say it looks like a spine, here in the dry heat of this canyon.
But every July, that metal would sweat just like my hands do now,
trying to hold the wheel steady, trying to not look down.
[Chorus]
Did you ever feel that humid high water?
A promise whispered over the river's slow shoulder.
The pressure droppin', but the storm's still not over.
[Verse 2]
You ask me what it sounded like, parked out on that steel truss.

Did you ever feel that humid high water?
A promise whispered over the river's slow shoulder.
The pressure droppin', but the storm's still not over.
[Bridge]
And the barometric readings of your breath on my neck
tell me the same damn stories I am trying to forget.
[Outro]
Just the static of the crossing...
and a freight train moaning low.
