|
Because your reasons are as cool as ice |
|
And your mind somehow paid the price |
|
You'll pay it again--somewhere--on down the line |
|
When you're there I'm sure you'll stare |
|
And I'll be behind you |
|
Because your day is a clock of grey hours |
|
And your smile has those tallest powers |
|
But sometimes, Jezebelle, it shines like the sun |
|
When you're gone and when you're done |
|
I will be behind you |
|
Because your songs are so sad and tired |
|
Because hunger is a darkness inside the phone wire |
|
It always has been, it always will be |
|
So it seems to me |
|
But that's the price you pay when you say |
|
I will be behind you |
|
Because your Ford broke down on 47 |
|
Because eight cylinders is your idea of heaven |
|
You'll get it running--someday--and you'll ride right down the line |
|
When you do, I hope it's true, |
|
And I'll ride beside you |
|
When you do, I hope it's true, |
|
And I'll ride beside you |
