Lyrics Hammer Blows - Lee Ranaldo

Hammer Blows

Last night I stopped by your house / in the rain
But I could see you weren’t home
Everything comes to a stop / here on Rocky Too
Maybe I’ll see you out on the road
Turn your face to the light / the wind whispers your name
Carry on into the night / it’s nice t have you back in the game
We talked about your sanity / but not of your vanity
If it’s all the same, we can talk talk talk til the end
On the road your feet are light / they carry you into the night
And I’ll walk beside you like a true true friend
Like a good citizen I wait for it all to explode
Turn my face to the wind.
I’m just a rabbit on the road
But I’m coming home
I’ll write at dawn
I’ll try t get you on the phone
My kingdom’s dirty and my hands unclean
Illusion comes w no remorse
Hammer blows get heavy and they’re oft unseen
But this pain is bound t run it’s course
It’s nice t have you back, I wasn’t ready for a change
Here’s a present for the road / I’ll give you back your name
It won’t do you harm
Shine up your nails
Feel the wind in your sails
