Watching the road from above the trees
A bloodshot moon has its eye on me
It’s hanging real low like a sleepy red eye
singing I’m so lonesome I could cry
Not a car in sight that I can see
Driving the back roads in Tennessee
I’m thinking of you on your long ride home
I’m lost somewhere feeling all alone
I’m sailing away in the western wind
Don’t know when I’ll be back again
So I’ll say goodbye and fare thee well
I’ll see you in heaven, but it feels like hell
When I woke up this morning the sun was gone
Stolen by the rain and the Memphis fog
It’s hard to say goodbye or see your way home
As you drift away in the great unknown
You're sailing away in the western wind
I can’t believe this is the end
So say goodbye and fare thee well
I’ll see you in heaven, but it feels like hell
You were laid to rest today my friend
Monday’s gone away never see it again
I always thought I knew if this day did come
How I’d feel, well I’d rather run
And sail away in the western wind
I don’t believe this is the end
So I’ll say goodbye and fare thee well
I’ll see you in heaven, but it feels like hell

Beneath the Waves

My hands full of ashes
Of lives lived before
My heart full of sadness
Standing by the shore
Dancing with the spirits
Afraid to close the door
Death is just a whisper
Sing to you no more

Who's that Girl?

Every morning I see your face down by the Southern Sun
Your raven hair flying everywhere
Your make-up on the run
You’re always standing in the pouring rain
In the cold or in the heat
Just waiting for someone to pick you up
And get you off the street
Who’s that girl?
With the pain in her eyes
Who’s that girl?
Who cares when she cries?
In the evening I see you shuffle by the Bel-Park laundromat
You don’t care you're in your underwear
and some silly red hat
You wave to me like I should be a friend
Someone to set you free
I wish I could lift you up
And get you off the street
Who’s that girl?
With hunger in her eyes
Who’s that girl?
Who cares when she cries?
Then one night in the summer heat
Police blocked Bellevue Street
In the dark down by Turner Park
Face down, beneath a sheet
A girl lying on the humid ground
Flashing lights, yellow tape all around
Someone’s daughter had been cut down
Right here in Memphis town
Where’s that girl?
With the Stars in her eyes
Where’s that girl?
With dreams as big the sky
Where’s that girl?
With the hope in her eyes
Where’s that girl?
Who cares when she dies?
