Nothing but the whole wide world to gain. Nothing, nothing. Got nothing but the whole wide world to gain. Nothing, nothing. Got nothing but the whole wide, whole wide world to gain.
In to the arms of the unknown. In to the places we never go. By walking through deep snow down forgotten roads. Been chasin' a light that comes and goes.
Find myself picking up the pieces of me that you discarded. So this what they talk about when they say broken hearted. Thought I was a together kind of person the type who had it handled.
Blackbird sitting on an open gate. Old camel now walking the plains. West wind blowing in waist high weed. A-sideways of the rain. . A bloodhound spent.
I'm tired of empty smiles and nights alone.. I'm sick of these paper stars, illuminating this hollow globe.. Surrounded by your eyes, I almost wanna float.
Id be the last one to know if you are always unhappy, first one who would ever ask why?. It was me you abandoned, or have I imagine that you were ever mine..
Oh, in my mind's eye, a plantation. In the clearing is a platform station. In the distance is a kingdom. Into the front line is how I'm coming. . They say in war all is fair.
Down from the mountain out walking the flood. I see the future in this setting sun. Unfolded gardens uncover the earth as it was. Filled with canteens and tear gas.
Meet me out. In the open sky. A perfect storm. Is on the rise. Beyond the city. Moving in as planned. Something comes. From a strange land. A trail of dust.
It doesn't always have a shape. Almost never does it have a name. It maybe has a pitchfork, maybe has a tail. But evil is alive and well. . It might walk upright from out of the inferno.
I've been walking the dirt floor. My eyes are open, Lord. Where did You go?. Have we just left You bored?. . On down this unholy well. We rolled Stirring barrels.
I'm worried 'bout you baby down in your rabbit hole. The evening of our great escape is starting to unfold. Out of bed, sleepy head it's different than you know.
Oh, it's a struggle, it's a scream. It's all give and no take. Whatever it is, now. It's right up to our waist. . Oh, it's a pity it's a shame. To see it all slip away.
Lay your worries. Down at your door. Now my loves. Like an open shore. Throw your suitcase. Sweetheart overboard. . Now tired eyes. In winter clothes.
I been working double shift all night. Bees make honey, I'm making mine. Good men are busy all the time. I been working double shift all night. . My line of work suits me fine.
If there's a plane. Or a bus leaving Dallas. I hope you're on it. If there's a train moving fast. Down the tracks. I hope you caught it. . 'Cause I swear out there.
Ocean's apart day after day. And I slowly go insane. I hear your voice on the line. But it doesn't stop the pain. . If I see you next to never. How can we say forever.
Hey girl, you make me wanna write a song,. Sit you down, I'll sing it to you all night long,. I've had a melody in my head. Since she walked in here and knocked me dead..
Hey, up in the backwoods, down in the holler,. Old boys feelin' like a dog on a collar,. Keepin' that chain pulled tight,. Waitin' on Saturday night. .
Oh - thinkin' about all our younger years. There was only you and me. We were young and wild and free. . Now nothin' can take you away from me. We've been down that road before.
