I disappoint you
you give up on me
dust of the earth and light of the plains
when will I know I will see you again

you never miss the water till the well runs dry
you never miss the sun till it leaves the sky
only know when it's too late to try
you never love a man till he says goodbye
cold wind blew my spirit away
it's gone for a year and a day
I ought to get out of this place
one of these days one of these

fate tells lies
maybe tonight maybe here
what can I say when words have no place
can the earth beneath shoulder my weight

fire in my head
cloud in my mouth
old skin don't you know this face
nothing to be gained here in this place

feel a bit false
uneasy
raw bony ghost waiting by my door
biding his time what's he waitin' for
