Story Behind the Song
Lyrics
Underneath the flattening gaze of moonlight
She's lighting up and blowing smoke
To the edge of dawn
Her memories are soaked in the happiness of a prison break
That somehow she managed years ago
I don't live there anymore
But I try to stay in touch
Big coal train hauled away the mountains
And she caught sight of another world,
Where she could go.
It made her hard, it made her mad, it made her run away
From all the sadness that she had come to know
I don't live there anymore
(She brought me with her, before I knew her)
I try to stay in touch
I don't live there anymore
(She brought me with her, before I knew her)
I try to stay in touch
Her gardens cannot grow the bitter seeds
The cynics sow and she still dances out in the rain
That streams from the eyes of God who
Always takes the longer view,
Who sometimes blinks but never looks away
I don't live there anymore
(She brought me with her, before I knew her)
I try to stay in touch
I don't live there anymore
(She brought me with her, before I knew her)
I try to stay in touch
Stay in touch. . .
