It's desert ice outside |
| [00:17.86] |
but this diner has thawed my ears |
| [00:22.26] |
Hot coffee in a clean white mug and a smile |
| [00:26.74] |
when the waitress hears |
| [00:29.50] |
That I was born in north carolina |
| [00:33.95] |
Not an hour from her home town |
| [00:37.66] |
And we used to play the same pizza parlor pinball |
| [00:45.07] |
And there's a glance in time |
| [00:47.32] |
suspended as I wonder how it is |
| [00:52.72] |
We've been swept up just by circumstance |
| [00:57.92] |
to where the coyote lives |
| [01:01.56] |
Where my days are strips of highway |
| [01:05.46] |
And she's wiping tables down |
| [01:09.14] |
Holding on and still waiting for that windfall |
| [01:15.79] |
But I've come home |
| [01:22.98] |
Even though I've never had so far to go |
| [01:30.86][03:04.01][05:22.80] |
I've come home |
| [01:47.23] |
I pay the check and leave the change |
| [01:51.68] |
from a crumpled ten-dollar bill |
| [01:55.47] |
Head across the street |
| [01:57.48] |
where vacancy is burning in neon still |
| [02:03.73] |
Well the night eats up my body heat |
| [02:07.53] |
And there's no sign of another |
| [02:10.85] |
And I find myself slipping down into that black |
| [02:19.31] |
But things are good I've got |
| [02:21.26] |
a lot of followers of my faith |
| [02:25.06] |
I've got a whole congregation |
| [02:28.92] |
living in my head these days |
| [02:33.02] |
And I'm preaching from the pulpit |
| [02:37.63] |
To cries of“Amen brother” |
| [02:41.70] |
Closing my eyes to feel the warmth come back |
| [02:49.16] |
And I've come home |
| [02:56.10] |
Even though I swear I've never been so alone |
| [03:19.41] |
I just want to be living as I'm dying |
| [03:23.83] |
Just like everybody here |
| [03:27.32] |
Just want to know my little |
| [03:29.86] |
flicker of time is worthwhile |
| [03:35.59] |
And I don't know where I'm driving to |
| [03:39.82] |
But I know I'm getting old |
| [03:43.49] |
And there's a blessing in every moment every mile |
| [04:05.82] |
Thin white terry bars of soap |
| [04:09.92] |
and a couple little plastic cups |
| [04:13.57] |
Old gideons bible in the nightstand |
| [04:16.98] |
drawer saying“Go on open up” |
| [04:21.36] |
Well I'll kneel down on the carpet here |
| [04:25.33] |
Though I never was sure of god |
| [04:28.97] |
Think tonight I'll give him the benefit of the doubt |
| [04:36.96] |
I switch off the lights and imagine |
| [04:40.02] |
that waitress outlined in the bed |
| [04:44.18] |
Her hair falling all around me |
| [04:48.51] |
I smile and shake my head |
| [04:51.87] |
Well we all write our own endings |
| [04:55.86] |
And we all have our own scars |
| [04:59.11] |
But tonight I think I see what it's all about |
| [05:06.98] |
Because I've come home |
