So, I hear it's cold. Up in Chicago. But I wouldn't know. . You, told all your friends. That I was no good. and you banished me from. . Does it hurt to be alone.
You sent me back to where I belong. I've run these tracks for far to long. I know that you'l change your mind. But I'l be gone. . There came a time, where I should of said.
Board a train, take it east. Find myself again. Western winds drove me there. Lonely stars, take me back home. . I chased a dream, I read about. In a magazine.
I'm sorry Mrs. Davenport. I broke your daughter's heart in two. And I swear I'll pay for it. . But I was just a child then. When you caught me that day.
I watched you unfold. In front of my eyes. As the drugs you were taking. Claimed your life. . If I had a ladder. up to the sky. I'd climb up to reach you.
Every day is Monday. In the house up on the hill. They're taking out the windows. But we're working up there still. . Till the sun goes down. You can hear the wheels go 'round.
Told my friends that I've had too much. Take me home and to lock me up. I'm a threat and I've had enough. Wait, just wait. . Then they bathe me in a crown of thorns.
every day is a Monday. in the house up on the hill. they're taking out the windows. but we're working up there still. till the sun goes down. you can hear the wheels go round.
Forty-seven dead beats living in the back street. North east west south all in the same house. Sitting in a back room waiting for the big boom. I'm in a bedroom waiting for my baby.
I'll take your photo in my hand. Turn it up and inside out. Till there's nothing in between. I wish that could be me. You look fine together. . I'll run in circles in my head.
Got the whole of the world in your fingers. Got the whole of the world in your hands, in your hands. Got the whole of my world in your hands. . It's the same as they played in the movies.
I'm heading down to Mexico. In a stolen car from Chicago. and I don't think I'll ever make it back. . They claimed I shot a man up there. in a drunken bar, smoke in the air.
Some things will never change. Some things we'll never know. Walking down the rocky road. Down and out with so far to go. . Without you on my mind. I'd never make it.
There was a car crash. Out on the highway. And I was the only survivor. I made it out alive. . So I fled the wreckage. and called in the accident. With hopes to save the people.
Driving down the road in a foreign town. And the streets and the sun making my head go round. One eye in the mirror for the sleeping low. And I'm driving down the road with my foot on the floor.
Sitting on a wire fence. Staring at the sun. Fighting don't make no sense. Staring at the sun. . We are only poor men. Nowhere left to run. We are only tall men.
All around the big bad world. On the CIA machine. Ten, ten, the President's men. In a big black limousine. . There's an ICBM flying by. Get down and get to work.
It's midnight and the stars. And the bright lights shine on to my wall. And in a distant bar. Someone's blowing a blue serenade. . But only the rain. Will stay with me tonight.
Tonight I lie in bed. Dreams runnin' round and around my head. I feel so hot, I feel so low. Seems those dreams won't let me go. . Won't fade out. (Fade out).
Over mountains. Over trees. Over oceans. Over seas. Across the desert. I'll be there. . In a whisper on the wind. On the smile of a new friend. Just think of me.
