Lyrics So I Can Take My Rest - Robert Earl Keen

So I Can Take My Rest

I’m tired to the bone
My back is to the wall
I’ve been on my own
So long I can’t recall
Take me in your arms tonight
Hold me to your breast
Tell me it will be alright
So I can take my rest
So I can take my rest
Maine to Mexico
Across the great divide
Through rain and snow
Oh, I ride
Take me in your arms tonight
Hold me to your breast
Tell me it will be alright
So I can take my rest
So I can take my rest
The time for us is near
The lightning streaks the sky
The thunder in my ears
Echoes with goodbye
Take me in your arms tonight
Hold me to your breast
Tell me, it will be alright
So I can take my rest
So I can take my rest
