Flashback Blues |
While window shopping through the past |
I ran across a looking glass |
Reflecting moments remaining in a burned out light |
Tragic magic prayers of passion |
Stay the same through changing fashions |
They freeze my mind like water on a winter’s night |
Spent most of my youth |
Out hobo cruising |
And all I got for proof |
Is rocks in my pockets and dirt in my shoes |
So goodbye nonbeliever |
Don’t you know that I hate to leave here |
So long babe, I got the flashback blues. |
Photographs show the laughs |
Recorded in between the bad times |
Happy sailors dancing on a sinking ship |
Cloudy skies and dead fruit flies |
Waving goodbye with tears in my eyes |
Well, sure I made it but ya know it was as hell of a trip. |
Spent most of my youth |
Out hobo cruising |
And all I got for proof |
Is rocks in my pockets and dirt in my shoes |
And ten times what it grieves you |
That’s how much more I hate to leave you now |
So long babe, I got the flashback blues. |
Spent most of my youth |
Out hobo cruising |
And all I got for proof |
Is rocks in my pockets and dirt in my shoes |
So goodbye nonbeliever |
Don’t you know that I hate to leave here |
So long babe, I got the flashback blues. |
