From the recording Savannah
Lyrics
I stepped off the train under the Spanish moss
Weeping of the willows
Feeling the sting of winter on my face
Til it was buried in my pillow I
guess I'll figure out what I'm doing here
The open road is calling
But it's better to be standing here
Than for you to see me falling
And I thank God for the train
That brought me to Savannah
I know I'm better here than there
Where I can't have you
But it gets a little lonely
In the great unknown
And there's a yellow rose I'm missing a little north of Waco
I guess I never thought that this was gonna
Take so long before I found my way back home
And now I'll find my way back home
And there's a man on River Street Just begging for some change
And I'm down on my knees
Begging it could stay the same
I got no money in my pockets
And I'm walking in the rain
And my heart keeps beating two thousand miles away
And I think about the morning I woke and you were gone
And I'm not even sure that I can carry on
Fighting off the demons that carried me away
And I hope to see the sunrise on another lonely day
And I thank God for the train
That brought me to Savannah
I know I'm better here than there
Where I can't have you
But it gets a little lonely
In the great unknown
And there's a yellow rose I'm missing a little north of Waco
I guess I never thought that this was gonna take
So long before I found my way back home
And now I'll find my way back home
And I thank God for the train that brought me to Savannah
I know I'm better here than there
Where I can't have you
But it gets a little lonely
In the great unknown
And there's a yellow rose I'm missing a little north of Waco
I guess I never thought that this was gonna take
So long before I found my way back home
And now I'll find my way back home
And now I'll find my way back home
