Lyrics

There's a thin white line
Cutting up the plains
As I travel back in time
And hours swallow up the days
Watch the lights come up
In the city where you are
And I close my eyes and feel the warmth of falling in your arms
Somebody cut me loose today
But I don't have a use for my wings in a hurricane
Unless I'm on my way
I met a girl back east
Who said 'don't trust the weatherman'
He never know when a sudden storm is gonna consecrate the land
She said on nights like these
I can hear the monuments
Just like us they're drinking poison singing what they can't forget
Somebody cut me loose today
But I don't have a use for my wings in a hurricane
Unless I'm on my way
I felt my heart grow wild
With every valley that I crossed
Oh I knew nothing of the desert
But the fear of being lost and you can't hear me now
But I've been calling out your name
When I wake up drenched in nightmares and find I'm alone again
Somebody cut me loose today
But I don't have a use for my wings in a hurricane
In a hurricane
Somebody cut me loose today
Oh I don't have a use for my wings in a hurricane
Unless I'm on my way
And if you're not home
On the day that I get back
I will wait up in the kitchen like you did the day I left
