Ship,ates and Cheyenne raindrops and cryin'

Haunt the dreams of an old, old man

Candles and churchbells laughter and farewells

Revolve in his thoughts like a wind

Stallions and blizzards steelys and lizards

Drift in the meadows of time

No sense of progression, of age or direction

No meter, no form, no rhyme



I'll hold me one just one risin' sun

Long after daylight is gone

I'll hold me one just one risin' sun

'Till my daylight and darkness is done



Kingdoms and covers, losers and lovers

And evenin's of blackberry wine

Fallin' like sands, the memories of cans

And kisses and whispers and sighs



I'll hold me on just one risin' sun

'Till long after daylight is gone

I'll hold me one just one risin' sun

'Till my daylight and darkness is done



I'll hold me one, one more risin' sun

'Till my daylight and darkness is done
