Intro and
Out where the creek turns shallow and sandy
And the moon comes skimmin away the stars
The wind in the mesquite comes rushin over the hilltops
Straight into my arms
Straight into my arms
I m riding hard carryin a catch of roses
And a fresh map that I made
Tonight I m gonna get birth naked and bury my old soul
And dance on its grave
And dance on its grave
It s been a long time comin , my dear
It s been a long time comin but now it s here
now it s here
Well my daddy he was just a stranger
Lived in a hotel downtown
When I was a kid he was just somebody
Somebody I d see around
Somebody I d see around
Now down below and pullin on my shirt
I got some kids of my own
Well if I had one wish in this god forsaken world, kids
It d be that your mistakes would be your own
Yea your sins would be your own
It s been a long time comin , my dear
It s been a long time comin but now it s here
now itâs here
Bridge-Break
Out neath the arms of Cassiopeia
Where the sword of Orion sweeps
It s me and you, Rosie, cracklin like crossed wires
And you breathin in your sleep
You breathin in your sleep
Well there s just a spark of campfire burning
Two kids in a sleeping bag beside
I Reach neath your shirt, lay my hands across your belly
And feel another one kickin inside
I ain t gonna it up this time
It s been a long time comin , my dear
It s been a long time comin but now it s here
It s been a long time comin , my dear
It s been a long time comin but now it s here
(Fade out)
