They kept the bars open late that night
We were just sitting around waiting for a dead man to die
And on my guitar someone painted a night sky
And it bled onto the strings into the wood
I fell asleep on a cold train headed west
Listening to Coltrane with my head against your breasts
And outside a forest fire made a perfect sunset
That's how it is, that’s how it goes, that's how it's done
Open your eyes, all of your fears are a lie
You’ve come too far now to give up control
For this year is still so young, and there are songs desperate to be sung
And there is rain we must convince to fall
I know she'll wait for me at the end of the road
In some vast dead forest she will hold me as I go
Just cause you're a loner doesn't mean you set out to be all alone
It doesn't mean you didn't wish for one more
Open your eyes, all of your fears are a lie
You've come too far now to give up control
For this year is still so young, and there are songs desperate to be sung
And there is rain we must convince to fall
