When I leave this town you will not see me cry An East Texas town with all the wells run dry Looking to the sky, waiting for a change No sign of rain
J's locked out on the fire escape Sarah's still down on the bench at the Circle K Cryin' and cryin' all day And everybody's best attempts didn't do no
[Music & Lyrics: P. Wagner] Oh Lord Jesus, come down from your cross See what's going on, see what's going on And meanwhile your land is getting lost
I wake up crying and I think of you There's something dying and my world lines broken in two A voice says, "Get out of bed" But instead I lay back and
Everything is getting better, everything is going smoother But everything's the same! Tell me why is doesn't change, tell me why it stays the same
No sign of living no sign of the dead there's someone existing in this house instead No flowers are blooming no children to cry no fire is burning no
It's a long wait at the gate Just to glimpse your fate Just to see whether it all works out It's a long road, a heavy load You gotta really want to go
You know it's all a game That we play back and forth I leave you chase And we're back to square one We were not mean to be And I tried my best to work
Standing in front of you, they fade into the wall And leave behind nothing, nothing at all And no, I don't understand how they forget When so much has
Gimme some kinda sign girl Show me that you're mine girl, alright If you do want me Gimme little sugar If you don't want me Don't lead me on, girl But
Here I stand alone again Hundreds all around (Hundreds all around) Didn't come here to make a friend But to listen to the sound (Listen to the sound)
Leaves come falling on a winter's day Robins weep and watch them sail away Floating on the water now is autumn's last farewell These are signs that will
A candle lights my way As I search for more than a common face But slowly my hope fades Along with this dyin' flame For all I know we've only just begun
Pull out the stop plugs, drain all the waste Who needs it anyway Fill all the big holes, leave no trace No sign of yesterday Wash all the dishes and
Autumn s come And the leaves are lookin brown and dry. Sun swings low, A fruit resists the thirsty ground. Uselessly, I try to coax a cloud or two. Searchin
J's locked out on the fire escape. Sarah's still down on the bench at the Circle K, crying and crying all day. Everbody's best attempts didn't do no good
It's a long wait at the gate just to glimpse your fate just to see whether it all works out It's a long road, a heavy load You gotta really want to go
What did I just say Well, I can't remember The room is spinning and My Heart is skipping beats Cause I finally cut all the ties That were hanging on me
