Town Mountain - Wildbird lyrics
In waves the day broke over me
Stirred in me a dying sound
Lost out on the dusty streets
A stranger to the old home town
So I caught a ride on a restless wind
I don't care where it take me to
Time was all I had to to spend
Oh, promises all there was to lose
Wildbird on the highway
Pain belays the circles in the sky
Low down, is the feeling that’s inside me,
But athousand miles behind me
If I thought that it might even out my mind
And I used to chase a gamblin girl
Ace was all she’d ever thrown
A softer smile had never been
A colder heart, I've never known
The day she left me for a fool
Thought I might've rushed right where I stood
Could not turn to watch her go
Now shes gone, and gone for good
Wildbird on the highway
Pain belays the circles in the sky
Low down, is the feeling that’s inside me,
But athousand miles behind me
If I thought that it might even out my mind
Burn all the whiskey from the will
Never seems to let me down
Plus the devil on my tongue
Puts a face on for the crowd
But it cant steal her memory
I see your face wherever I go
From the silver moons of Abilene
To the quiet mountains of New Mexico
Wildbird on the highway
Pain belays the circles in the sky
Low down, is the feeling that’s inside me,
But athousand miles behind me
If I thought that it might even out my mind
Wild bird, wild bird.
