Edvard Munch by The Mountain Goats Lyrics

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
Brand new colors on the eastern sky
The blinding symmetry, the little white lie
Your small hand waving in the cold air
The ridges of the mountain frozen on the skyline there

[Chorus]
When the sun came out over Norway today
I saw you going away
There was nothing good in your going
There was nothing good in your going

[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
I cut the flowers that grew near the door
And I arranged them in the center of the floor
And the room was so empty
There were pale shadows inside
[Chorus]
When the sun came out over Norway today
I saw you going away
There was nothing good in your going
There was nothing good in your going

[Outro]
