Lyrics

Even the guiding light of day
Is in the loving underground
The finest shady weather here today
When upon the ledge
I didn’t find a soul around
But that’s just me, and who am I to say
When it’s all the same so many miles away?
Now we’re falling over all these chiefs
And running out of braves
It’s getting hard to know just what to say
Was a time when I could find
Belief in “Jesus saves”
Then something came and took it all away
I reckon he was saving for a rainy day
There’s no way to touch upon
This understanding had we known
How close it was to be the sea of sand
And heaven knows, we had the time
And as I see, the only crime
Is being just a little short of land
Send me home with a country song
And leave it ringing 'round
Ask my friends, they know which one to play
And even the guiding light of day
Is in the loving underground
The finest shady weather here today
Then it's all the same, so many miles away
