Another Midnight |
He was a coal miner in the spring |
Blinded with its dusty resolutions |
Broke his back for higher contributions |
Now he’d take anything |
Well, she was nineteen seventy |
Burning like a cigarette long season |
Heir to all her family’s old treasons |
She makes love hard like an enemy |
Oh ma, he’s dying |
And the river don’t sleep |
When the water runs cold |
And the calendar burns |
As the story unfolds |
And the valley spans miles |
When the mountain stands high |
Can’t they let us run wild |
For another midnight |
For just another midnight |
Perhaps we’re an election day |
Pumping hands and kissing all the babies |
Ain’t no time for shadowed doubts or maybes |
Is there another way? |
Or we’re a stolen Cadillac |
Racing for a roadblock in the distance |
Flashing by a lifetime in an instance |
Can we take it back? |
Oh ma, he’s dying |
Oh ma, he’s dying |
And the river don’t sleep |
When the water runs cold |
And the calendar burns |
As the story unfolds |
And the valley spans miles |
When the mountain stands high |
Can’t they let us run wild |
For another midnight |
Can we take it back? |
Can we take it back? |
Can we take it back? |
Can we take it back? |
And the valley spans miles |
When the mountain stands high |
Can’t they let us run wild |
For another midnight |
For just another midnight |
For just another midnight |
For another midnight |
