Lyrics

[Verse 1]
He was a silver tongue devil standing there
He's waiting, he's waitin' for a ride
Looking for a one way out of this town
No, I couldn't let him down
So I asked him, how far? He said, "As far as you'll go"
You know I couldn't say no
[Verse 2]
It was a Thursday in September or December
The last thing I remember were the cloudless sky above
[Verse 3]
He said he saw a good friend die
I never thought to ask him why
I could have sworn I heard him say he know who did it
I could have sworn I heard him say
[Verse 4]
We headed off into the dead air of the desert
To a place, to a place I've never known
He stared into the sun that shone above us
Then smiled and spoke how good it was
Yet things change and they stay the same
Home sweet home
[Verse 5]
There was a stillness as the light set behind us
The last thing I remember was the laughter in my ears
[Verse 6]
Fearless yet fearful, I stared into his eyes
And then he grabbed my hand, and I started to fly
Ageless and timeless, I gave him control
He said, "That's it my friend, I own your soul"
[Verse 7]
I thought I heard him say
I thought I heard him say
[Verse 8]
He said he saw a good friend die
I never thought to ask him why
I could have sworn I heard him say he knew who did it
I could have sworn I heard him say
I could have sworn I heard him say
I could have sworn I heard him say
