When my blood runs warm ( like a warm ) red wine, I missed the life that I left behind.
And when I hear the sound of the black bird's cry, I know I left in the nick of time.
( Weather's ?? ) my mountain's gonna turn to sand and leave me lost in a far off land. ( So let me run ) until I don't look back and forget the life that I almost had.
If I wander until I die may I know whose hand I'm in. If my home I'll never find
And let me ( live it ) again The longer I run the less that I find, selling my soul for a nickel and dim, it's breaking my heart to keep singing these rhymes. And losing it again.
Tell my brother please not to look for me. I ain't the man I used to be.
"Cause if my savior comes would you let him know I've gone away for to save my soul.
