Good Fortune - Lyrics - Weeping Tile

A weeping tile is a porous pipe, also called a drain or perimeter tile, corrugated drain pipe, or "ag pipe" in Australian English, used for underground water collection or discharge. Named in the time period when terracotta tiles were typical for drain pipes, the modern material is typically plastic pipe with small slits or weep holes in it. It is buried surrounded by aggregate larger than the slits. The aggregate rocks prevent excessive soil from falling through the slits into the weeping tile. With this arrangement, water in the surrounding soil above the weeping tile flows into the weeping tile. The weeping tile then drains into a solid pipe leading to a discharge or directly into a sump then removed by a sump pump.

You walked away away from us Pulling weeds in the later afternoon sun Off somewhere alone to take one last look at a life you had begun And I set off my boots on gravel Potholed lane just tagging on Looked both ways down the fire road To see which way you had gone Been sipping tea all day from a pot Steeping slowly on the stove Explored a cave into the bay Along Canadian shield coast Moss covered crevices line the inside of my brain I got lost in the overgrowth You dont notice time and it gets late I thank my lucky starts tonight that you are here Your eyes so blue so bright Good fortune's found me out Up in Parry Sound I lie Waiting in sleep until the night goes by The high was on You're in mind Getting ready for something to be something after all this time And now Im leaning back against your warm coat Under a setting galaxy Orions belt with all I felt It was a wonder I could see There in that clearing where the treelines shadows Impose on the blacker sky I opened my hand for the first time I thank my lucky stars tonight that you are here Your eyes so blue so bright Good fortunes found me out Up in Parry Sound I lie Waiting in sleep until the night goes by Until the night goes by
