Trio Ii

Well i dreamed i saw the knights in armor coming
Saying something about a king
There were peasants singing and drummers drumming
And the archer split the tree
There was a fanfare blowing to the sun
That was floating on the breeze
Look at mother nature on the run
In the twenty-first century
Look at mother nature on the run
In the twenty-first century
I was lying in a burned out basement
With the full moon in my eyes
I was hoping for replacement
When the sun burst through the sky

There was a band playing in my head
And i felt like i could cry
I was thinking about what a friend had said
I was hoping it was a lie
Thinking about what a friend had said
I was hoping it was a lie

Well i dreamed i saw the silver spaceships flyin'
In the yellow haze of the sun
There was laughing, crying and colors flying
All around the chosen one

All in a dream, all in a dream, the loading had begun
Flying mother nature's silver seed to a new home in the sun
They were flying mother nature's silver seed to a new home

A light shines from my window
I just can't sleep no more
Lord, it hurts so much to be alone
But the real men never do admit
That it's them that might be wrong
At least that's what he told me in his song
Chorus:

He rode all the way to texas
On an old freight train
Didn't miss the girl he left behind
He rode all the way to texas
Didn't shed a tear
He's lettin' you know that he's the movin' kind

The freedom that he sings about
I guess i'll never know
I just can't shake the guilt or kill the pain
But he lets me ride when the lights turns low
Get on board the radio and take a ride to texas on his train

Repeat chorus

Chorus:
I've been higher than the high sierra
Lower than death valley must be
I've been right, mostly wrong
Wrong about you, right about me

The way i feel, can't explain
So much passion turned to pain
The sun still shines most of the time
Did you know the sun shines when it rains

Repeat chorus

I've been cussed and i've been praised
And i've been nothing these days
But i'll come back, time will see
If i'm wrong about you, right about me

Repeat chorus

Though the miles are between us
I thought our love would strengthen
As it has so many times before
But something has happened
I can see it in your eyes
I can feel my world is crumblin'
And the blues are at my door
Chorus:

The last letter that you wrote was
On a blue piece of paper
That old feelin's back
The clouds are movin' in

The beginning of the end is near
I feel your love has faded into darkness
It seems i have no friend
I feel the blues movin' in

Oh it's not the words you wrote that made me sad
And broken-hearted
That's put me in this sad shape i'm in
Between the lines are mixed emotions
And there's teardrops on the paper
You said that's all i'll write today
I'll cose for now old friend

Repeat chorus

My state of mind is desperate
And this hole that i'm sinkin' in
Gets deeper while i'm diggin' to get out
Oh please give the right answer to the questions i'm askin'
Tell me you still love me
That would turn my world about

Repeat chorus

Oh, sometimes i go walking through fields where we walked
Long ago in the sweet used to be
And the flowers still grow, but they don't smell as sweet
As they did when you picked them for me
Chorus:

And when i think of you and the love we once knew
How i wish we could go back in time
Do you ever think back on old memories like that
Or do i ever cross your mind

Do you ever wake up lonely in the middle of the night
Because you miss me, do you darling
Oh, and do your memories ever take
You back into another place in time
And do you ever miss the feelings
And the love we shared when you were with me, tell me darling
Or do i ever cross your mind

Oh, how often i wish that again i could kiss
Your sweet lips like i did long ago
And how often i long for those two loving arms
That once held me so gentle and close

Repeat chorus
