Budget Shoes - Gord Downie, The Sadies

We’re walking through the valley of ghosts

You’re walking through in your budget shoes

My sleeping boots

They slow down the wind

You said, «we get this wrong

It weighs a fortune

It weighs a fortune»

Can’t go to sleep in the valley of ghosts

You won’t take your eyes off my sleeping boots

I dreamed her face

I saw her again

To the disgrace of all

I’m in heaven

Heaven

Heaven

Heaven

Oh, I awoke in the valley of ghosts

All that remained were your budget shoes

Sleeping boots

They slowed down the wind

They lightened up your dreams

And weigh a fortune

They had been taken

Don’t go to sleep in the valley of ghosts

Can’t get to sleep in these budget shoes

I’m walking home through the valley of ghosts

Can’t do a thing in these budget shoes
