| Close the door on a short night | |
| Lift the lid on the daylight | |
| 6:09 West Tennessee time | |
| And I buy all my days | |
| At the same place where the girl sells her nights | |
| To a God of ocean tides. | |
| All night long, | |
| Writing poems to California | |
| Melodies of failure | |
| And the people I have thrown away | |
| Meanwhile, somewhere west of Carolina | |
| In a congregation of strangers | |
| We are digging holes to China | |
| Then we pray to our reflections | |
| In the water when it rises. | |
| I said headlights pin the highway down | |
| Jesus spins the world around | |
| And I’ll spend all my tomorrows coming down | |
| Goodbye all my days. | |
| I know I said I never loved you | |
| But I might just try again tonight. | |
| Truck stops and river Gods | |
| Gas stations of the Cross | |
| Following a ghost, | |
| Following a ghost, | |
| I pray the water wash away | |
| The memories and the cost. | |
| Cary me south, to the sea | |
| Along with your memories of me | |
| We are born in the water | |
| Now we return to Thee. | |
| Colored lights | |
| And birthday cakes | |
| Candle wax | |
| On paper plates. | |
| Breathe the water | |
| Hush-a-bye, hush-a-bye. | |
| You can see through water | |
| All the way up to the sky. | |
| Gods of water, Gods of rain | |
| Cover up the sun again | |
| We are crossing it at the Mississippi line | |
| And I tried all my days | |
| To love you just the way you hoped I might, | |
| But I’m leaving here tonight. | |
| I can’t remember yesterday | |
| I tried, if I said I could I lied. |
| Close the door on a short night | |
| Lift the lid on the daylight | |
| 6: 09 West Tennessee time | |
| And I buy all my days | |
| At the same place where the girl sells her nights | |
| To a God of ocean tides. | |
| All night long, | |
| Writing poems to California | |
| Melodies of failure | |
| And the people I have thrown away | |
| Meanwhile, somewhere west of Carolina | |
| In a congregation of strangers | |
| We are digging holes to China | |
| Then we pray to our reflections | |
| In the water when it rises. | |
| I said headlights pin the highway down | |
| Jesus spins the world around | |
| And I' ll spend all my tomorrows coming down | |
| Goodbye all my days. | |
| I know I said I never loved you | |
| But I might just try again tonight. | |
| Truck stops and river Gods | |
| Gas stations of the Cross | |
| Following a ghost, | |
| Following a ghost, | |
| I pray the water wash away | |
| The memories and the cost. | |
| Cary me south, to the sea | |
| Along with your memories of me | |
| We are born in the water | |
| Now we return to Thee. | |
| Colored lights | |
| And birthday cakes | |
| Candle wax | |
| On paper plates. | |
| Breathe the water | |
| Hushabye, hushabye. | |
| You can see through water | |
| All the way up to the sky. | |
| Gods of water, Gods of rain | |
| Cover up the sun again | |
| We are crossing it at the Mississippi line | |
| And I tried all my days | |
