|
I've been driving all night |
|
On a road to nowhere |
|
With the devils convoy, black smoke upon my tracks |
|
Girl, I hardly knew you |
|
But I could never fool you |
|
You was always sitting still |
|
While the world raced to its grave |
|
When the morning breaks |
|
I've been driving wide awake |
|
Cause I've been running so long |
|
Can't recall what it means to stay |
|
Cause I let you slip away like water right through my hands |
|
Oh baby, your love's like rain in a desert to a thirsty man |
|
Thirsty man |
|
You know I've seen the mountains |
|
And the flatlands too |
|
I've seen all these city streets |
|
But I still go out searching for you |
|
Now in the captain's chamber |
|
There's a ball and chain |
|
You can run for a million miles but you'll never outrun your name |
|
When the morning breaks |
|
I've been driving wide awake |
|
Cause I've been running so long |
|
I can't recall what it means to stay |
|
And all the children sing |
|
And all the old men sing |
|
It's better to love and lose |
|
Than to gain a world on a string |
|
Cause I let you slip away |
|
Like water right through my hands |
|
Oh baby, your love's like rain in a desert to a thirsty man |
|
Yeah, thirsty man |
|
When the morning breaks |
|
I've been driving wide awake |
|
Cause I've been running so long |
|
Can't recall what it means to stay |
|
Cause I let you slip away like water right through my hands |
|
Oh honey, your love's like rain in a desert to a thirsty man |
|
Yeah, thirsty man |
