|
It was a late-in-the-summer night |
|
Nearing the end of a bumpy ride |
|
Through the backstage parking lots of the country |
|
We went past the cars at the fray |
|
The cops on bikes |
|
The security gate |
|
Into the trees where the dark comes easy |
|
See the light of the Venus shining |
|
High over the mid-western plains |
|
Is it telling you you gotta go? |
|
That your heart's been burning way to slow |
|
I guess I'm the last to know again |
|
But I will rise up, I will |
|
Who was the Phoenix anyway? |
|
Just some bird that flew away |
|
And flies still |
|
It was a late-in-the-summer day |
|
The breeze had blown the clouds away |
|
The fluttering ones were covering the fields |
|
I've been walking by myself |
|
I've been thinking about you again |
|
Maybe one day I'll tell you how I feel |
|
See the light of the satellite tower |
|
The only thing that's blocking our view |
|
Is it telling you what's on my mind |
|
That I think about you all the time |
|
That I wish for it even thought I know not to. |
|
I will rise up, I will |
|
Who was that Phoenix anyway? |
|
Just some bird that flew away |
|
And flies still |
|
Flies still |
|
You know I will |
