Country Down |
| Oh country down |
| Where I found my proving ground |
| All along the floodline |
| Wheels are turning around |
| The hills roll out like centuries |
| Pass by without a sound |
| Just a mile outside of town |
| Down-river bound |
| Where the limit to your sky fell down |
| The plot against your will |
| Is furrowed into your brow |
| Against your better judgment |
| It’s all behind you now |
| Just a mile outside of town |
| What’s the use of being found? |
| You can lose yourself in some good ground |
| In the weeds hiding down the river right next door |
| There’s no frame around your picture |
| Just a view through my back door |
| Time evermore |
| You just found what you’re looking for: |
| A tiger rose growing through your prison door |
| Reaching for sunlight, can’t see it anymore |
| Just a mile from my back door |
| You could wake up on a lifeboat 'neath the sun |
| On a ladder up to the sky |
| You’re standing on the lowest rung |
| Holding a lifeline, using my best defense |
| Running in the undertow my heart couldn’t fight against |
| Oh lay me down |
| Where we found my proving ground |
| All along the floodline |
| Waves are turning around |
| The hills roll out like centuries |
| Pass by without a sound |
| Just a mile outside of town |
