Traveler’s Suite

歌詞

She's all i ever wanted She could make me alive I don't think she's dead or anything, but i still feel haunted Something in the way she said goodbye This time The night before It could be me but it seemed like i needn't return That's right little johnny gets to go and fight his war And as he rides off in the sunset he feels the last ray's burn And shine The setting sun, though we ain't done The setting sun, though we ain't done The only one that makes me run The setting sun, though we ain't done What the hell did she mean When she turned away and said "don't you ever forget me" And why the sad routine The tear in her eye, and my big reply When i said you'd never let me Oh no, not she I found a letter I found it in a pocket that she must have slipped it in It basically told me to forget her Now i ain't no genius, but i think i could begin To see The setting sun, though we ain't done The setting sun, though we ain't done The only one that makes me run The setting sun, though we ain't done With the sun obscured from view And none but the night left to keep me warm Is it me my darling, there's nothing left to do But surrender to the coming storm Where i am born... With nothing to lose, and freedom to gain I rode west at nightfall through freezing rain Relying on luck, and the wit of my brain Visions of plunder and endless campaign Numb the pain There is comfort in the sun And the earth is good and soft Now my sail catch the wind send my chariot aloft I am rounding all the parapets As another city burns Harvest all creation for its ominous return And then well before dawn In cover we've gone Moving on to the next after killing my prey Growing steadily easier each one i'd slay By blood and by battle, making my way Onto the breach and into the fray When i play... There is comfort in the sun And the earth is good and soft Now my sail catch the wind send my chariot aloft I am rounding all the parapets As another city burns Harvest all creation for its ominous return And then well before dawn In cover we've gone Come hell, come high water, come into me Storm bring your flood waters, turn desert to sea Destroy all my obstacles, whatever they be Extinguish all light and fell every tree Set me free! Said a low branch touching the water Feels the current's take Said a mighty river bends her But oh¡­oh¡­oh¡­ But she won't break Ain't gonna break anytime soon Said a candle's flame she dances A sudden tempest blows She dwindles and dims against the cold, cold winds And oh¡­oh¡­oh¡­ And then she grows, she keeps growin and growin and growin Somehow, i gotta come and see Some way, she's familiar to me Gently, she'd try and try and try It amazes me And i gotta find out why Somehow, i gotta come and see Some way, she's familiar to me Gently, she'd try and try and try It amazes me And i gotta find out why I¡­i¡­i¡­i¡­i¡­ I may never understand her Her secret is not to know Nothing for me to do, with or for or to But oh¡­oh¡­oh¡­ I just love to watch her go Said i love to watch her go Gonna watch her go... I am the river that bends the branch I am the tempest that dwindles the flame No one can stand the avalanche The beast can be bargained but he can't be tamed Balance and equilibrium lost No one can hold me or alter my fate The die casts love before the rubicon crossed Trying not to move, but momentum won't wait It's too late... There is comfort in the sun And the earth is good and soft Now my sail catch the wind send my chariot aloft I am rounding all the parapets As another city burns Harvest all creation for its ominous return And then well before dawn In cover we've gone She's all i ever wanted Maybe now i'm wanting something more So we start away, unto the new daylight undaunted Maybe that is what the dawn is for But you can't be sure...
