Programme Note
A country-inspired ballad with lyrics by Pulitzer Prize winning poet Louise Glück.
"They told me dirty footprints were the hallmark of a heel
They told me if I gave my love
That I would have to deal
With footprints baked into my heart
That never would come clean
Despite the soapsuds of my sorrow
And the brillo of my pain’’
"They told me dirty footprints were the hallmark of a heel
They told me if I gave my love
That I would have to deal
With footprints baked into my heart
That never would come clean
Despite the soapsuds of my sorrow
And the brillo of my pain’’
