Road south before the winter
I took shelter in your eyes
Pushed all the way Brooklyn
Didn't ask for nothin' but a place to spend the night
And I know that there's a reason
Why the rains keep roaming in
The creosote is blooming
The winds are busy crooning
And the stark is turning in
They say "Boy, you're looking skinny
Should you really go this hard?
You're doing it for nothing
These risky miles your truckin'
Are crazy as they are far."
Can you tell me about the moon that rises earlier up north
Through the hills were they sing
In the early part of spring
Where the road goes on forever like the pictures that we see
And are you lost and scared and tired
When we can't see
AAHH AAHHHH AHHHH
And I've never felt the wind blow
Like they do into the sea
They weren't all that strong
But carried them a song
That reminded you to me
They say "Boy, you're looking skinny
Should you really go this hard?
You're doing it for nothing
These risky miles your truckin'
Are crazy as they are far."
Can you tell me about the moon that rises earlier up north
Through the hills were they sing
In the early part of spring
Where the road goes on forever like the pictures that we see
And are you lost and scared and tired
When we can't see
Cause the sun realized
If the moon don't rip her from the sky
It's a help in keeping whole
So we'll rest when we get home
I'm strung out and far gone
I fell all alone
The winding of the river makes me want to find my way back home
My way back home
My way back home
My way back home
My way back home
My way back home
My way back home
My way back home
Cause I know it's not forever
Cause I can only go so long
One day I'll get to dying
So the only thing worth trying
Is leaving you a song
And I'll play it if you want too
I've been playing it my whole life
I'll chase you across the desert
The praries and the mountains
Towards pleasentries and strife
Cause the sun realized
If the moon don't rip her from the sky
It's a help in keeping lost
And scared and tired
When you can't see
Lost and scared and tired
When they run free
And lost and scared and tired
When you can't see
AHHH AHHH AAHHH
