Oh, I don't know why
She treats me so nice
When I spend my time
Tellin' all these lies
And I see my face
When I close my eyes
With an empty space
Where there was a smile
Oh, it feels so wrong
Stringin' her along
But I got no heart
To tell her to go
And it's such a drag
To be stuck this way
When I'd rather be
Some place far away
I can't break the news
That I'm movin' on
'Cause she'll just refuse
To give up on us
So I'll leave at night
And she'll wake alone
But I know it's right
'Cause I'll be long gone
And in the mornin'
She won't find a thin'
Just that empty space
Where my spine had been
But when the ground dries
And the clouds depart
She will realise
That I got no heart

When I Lay Down to Die
05:49

I would never like to go back home
I would never like to go back home
There's a woman here
When I see her my breath disappears
I would never like to go back home
The mornin' sun it makes me smile
The mornin' sun it makes me smile
I ain't got a lot of money
But I'll get by, I tell you somethin'
The mornin' sun it makes me smile
And when I lay down to die
Oh, when I lay down to die
There'll be a smile on my face
I know I have seen this place
Oh, when I lay down to die
Oh boy, I know I drink too much
Oh boy, I know I drink too much
I fall asleep in someone's room
And wake up in the afternoon
Oh boy, I know I drink too much
And when I'm walkin' down the street
Oh, when I'm walkin' down the street
I don't mind if he hills are steep
I smile at everyone I meet
When I'm walkin' down the street
And when I lay down to die
Oh, when I lay down to die
There'll be a smile on my face
I know I have seen this place
Oh, when I lay down to die
And when the evenin' rolls along
Oh, when the evenin' rolls along
I go trudgin' home
But I don't mind just where I go
When the evenin' rolls along
I would never like to go back home
I would never like to go back home
There's a woman here
When I see her my breath disappears
I would never like to go back home
And when I lay down to die
Oh, when I lay down to die
There'll be a smile on my face
I know I have seen this place
Oh, when I lay down to die

Winter

I can tell that winter's gone
I will raise up brave and strong
I'll be leavin' 'fore the sky turns blue
No more tears for you
I can tell you somehow
No more shadows for me now
The sun has returned to me, I know
No more wadin' through the snow
I can finally breathe again
Like a time, I remember when
The sun has returned to me, I know
No more wadin' through the snow

The Great Mountain Haul

|

There's a thing inside my brain
Makes a man go insane
I can see all the beauty
Of the world if we were free
It's time to leave
It's time to go
Time to leave this world we all know
Oh, it's time to go
