Well there's no stronger wind than the one that blows down a lonesome railroad line No prettier sight than lookin' back on a town you left behind But there's nothin' that's as real as a love that's in my mind Close your eyes I'll be here in the morning Close your eyes I'll be here for a while Well there's lots of things along the road I'd surely...Learn More

[Verse] In this town, television shuts off at 2 What can a lonely rock and roller do?

[Verse 1] Dottie never went outside She had a sense of terrible July Did she do it for revenge? Or did she have some secret existence? [Verse 2] Some say she got on the train With a suitcase and a hat And a hope that went away Cause no one's seen her since this spring And I know she liked to dream of disappearing [Chorus] Did she get on the...Learn More

[Verse] Started out down a dirty road I started out all alone The sun went down as I crossed the hill As the town lit up and the world got still [Chorus] Learning to fly, but I ain't got wings Comin' down is the hardest thing [Bridge] But the good old days, they may not return And the rocks may melt and the sea may burn [Chorus] I'm learning to...Learn More

[Verse 1] It's sixty-six and cloudy this mornin’ I'll make a bet those clouds will turn to rain The weather's rusted out the sign And I almost missed the turn That’ll take me down to Saunders Ferry Lane [Verse 2] The creekin' boards of the empty dock Are the only sounds I hear The sign on the catfish stand says, "Closed 'til spring" The summer...Learn More
