I laid him down in a grave in the sand and he grabbed my arm with his dean man’s hand. Was he unforgiven, or just tired of livin’ a life that never felt like his? Though I was worn and weary, I thought I’d bury him and lay his soul to rest out in the desert at night. Just a kid with his hair slicked back and a knife tucked into his belt. Sure as hell, he was dead as they come, and we was already starting to smell. You come back from a trip to the east but you don’t come back from the dead. Saw him lyin’ in the road looking bad, about twenty yards ahead. Trying to keep my eyes open wide I’d gone days without any rest. Yellow lines in the dead of the night I was heading back out west.

Keep me going ‘til the night turns into the day. I watched the heavens collide right before my eyes. The sky was falling and time was bending. Oh, I sing all day and I love you through the night. All the spirits that I know I saw do you see no ghosts in me at all? There ain’t language for the things I feel, and If I can’t have you, then no one ever will. Yes, I know that love is like ghosts when the moonlight, baby, shows you what’s real. But if you’re leavin’, I gotta know why? Oh, I sing all day and I love you through the night. You don’t want me, baby, please don’t lie. They sing all day and they haunt me in the night.
