lyrics

Broke down on Fifty-Five
By the burning grounds in an empty night
Jesus alive in the TV light
They settled right down
In this town
On the edge of an empty bed
They'll hold their heads
And sing

Sing it loud, sing as if to cry
Out at the dark, out at the sky
Sing it though you don't know why
And I'm just flesh and bone
I'm older, I want to hold her
Till my time is up
And I've spent all my luck
The last hours will pass like sips from a cup

Flashlight in the photograph
Made you look, made you laugh
Hold it close, make it last
We settled right down without a sound
Save the best,
The last request,
The gilded moon,
That never goes down
