Static On The Radio |
| 3 A.M. |
| I’m awakened |
| By a sweet summer rain |
| Distant howling of a passing Southbound coal train |
| Was I dreaming |
| Or was there someone just lying here Beside me in this bed? |
| Am I hearing things? |
| Or in the next room |
| Did a long forgotten music box just start playing? |
| And I know (it's a sin putting words in the mouths of the dead) |
| And I know (it's a crime to weave your wishes into what they said) |
| And I know (only fools venture where them spirits tread) |
| 'Cause I know (every word, every sound bouncing 'round my head) |
| Is just static on the radio |
| (Everything I think I know is just static on the radio) |
| Now there’s a church house |
| About a stone’s throw down |
| From this place where I been staying |
| It’s Sunday morning |
| And I’m sittin' in my truck |
| Listening to my neighbor sing |
| Ten years ago I might have joined in But don’t time change those inclined |
| To think less of what is written |
| Than what’s wrote between the lines? |
| 'Cause I know (dreams are for those who are asleep in bed) |
| And I know (it's a sin putting words in the mouths of the dead) |
| 'Cause I know (for all my ruminations I can’t change a thing |
| Still I hope (there's others out there who are listening) |
| To the static on the radio |
| (Everything I think I know is just static on the radio |
| Static on the radio |
| (Ain't praying for miracles, I’m just down on my knees) |
| Static on the radio |
| (Listening for the song behind everything I think I know) |
| Static on the radio |
| (Everything I think I know is just static on the radio) |
