Insrumental verse
Let's open up the windows, have Satan departin' now And we'll be even when the blues fall down like hail Hell, I don't even care no more about Cadejo now If he's a white one or a black one on the trail I left my heart to the wild hunt a-comin' I live until the call And I plan to be forgotten when I'm gone Yes I'll be leavin' in the fall

So I won't be your burden of tomorrow dear Oh Xavier's on the border of the sun Swings on the chambers of your guns And tries to shoot the chord and light the path Oh but hell, I'm just a blind man on the plains I drink my water when it rains And live by chance among the lightning strikes Oh once I held a glacier to an open flame And once I fell like wildcat in the falling game But I will fight this stranger that you should fear So I won't be your burden of tomorrow dear
Repeat intro
Oh the singer's on the edge to feed the canyon's mouth They will go on forever till they sing you out of time But I will fight this stranger that you should fear So I won't be your burden of tomorrow dear

Well, there's a question somewhere asked with all the answers inside But I'll never find the kid before she's gone Well, the day is never done But there's a light on where you're sleeping So I hope some day your trouble will be gone But now the ghost is in my jacket and my stairs were built in anger Winding forcefully but end up where I stand But there are no rocks or salt and nails, I load my cannons not to kill you Simply lost the words to tell you I'm afraid And there's a sign up to a hill to see the far of the land Well the sign will tell you, "Turn if there's a one" Still the day is never done But there's a light on where you're sleeping So I hope somewhere that troubles will be gone Oh darling, when it's you I see in headlights, driving down the golden highway And salvation in the beauty of some brace And the deer is gone without me to the valley of surrender There is still another world along its tracks But there's that sign up to a hill to see the far of the land Well the sign will say, "There's still a higher one" And now the day is slowly setting And the light's on where you're sleeping So I hope somewhere that troubles will be gone

"It's just the drying of the lawns I'm going to leave out there" Well I said I've sailed the frozen corners of the dark Atlantic Sea And I drifted on the waves and the mirage beneath And never have I felt such numb and pointless searchin' true As when I set my eyes on torched up lands of the mark of you And no this is not the summer dream she said It's just the drying of the lawns I'm going to leave out there She said you follow me like sheep that think this cane could do some harm But I tell you boy I'm frightened still with a sister's heart I set my eyes upon the shore whenever you wake up I'm leavin' 'cause you don't feel what you're dreamin' of And no this is not the summer dream she said It's just the drying of the lawns I'm going to leave out there

But I will stand down in the hallway with no thought to leave the set Of a movie I will sure as hell not end just yet If evenings are for romance then this morning is for us It will never end, and our last dream will leave this house And no this is not the summer dream she said It's just the drying of the lawns I'm going to leave out there It's just the drying of the lawns I'm going to leave out there

Just 'cause I stole some eagle's wings Because you named me as your lover Well, I thought I could be anything Well if you could reinvent my name Well if you could redirect my day I wanna be the King of Spain

There's a boy running downhill to the lowlands tonight And he's catching the train to where he's heard you have been He's a fool now among us, a dreamer within, dreaming of you And on that day there was snowfall in the street, yellow light And they cleared the bill and rails just by those dark shimmer eyes In that land there's a winter, in that winter's a day In that day there's a moment when it all goes your way

Well he lives by that memory and falls from his mind And you know it's a lion's heart That will tumble and tear apart When he's coming down the hills for you

So I walk in a time to be gone Oh, no real goodbye if you mean it So I guess I'm forever alone Now he's a stranger among us, he will die in the park Where he hides from the statues and the weather remarks In that land there's a winter, in that winter's a day In that day there's a moment when it all goes away And you know it's a lion's heart That will tumble and tear apart When it's coming down the hills for you
