lyrics

LOVELESS TRAVELER
Rain was pounding on my windshield wipers…ice was forming on my Heart and my hands…rain come down on Loveless Traveler…death walks beside me.

And it’s a long, long road…I know.
Yeah it’s a long, long road…roll on.
God it’s a long, long road…I know. I know…

Lights grow dim on the road less traveled…buried secrets are now calling out my name…just like any bad luck story…the writer’s in me.

And it’s a long, long road…I know.
Gone down the long, long road…roll on.
Yeah, it’s a long, long road…I know.
God it’s a long, long road…I know. I know.

Rain was pounding on my windshield wiper...a howling wind underneath my wheels…
And the morning sun…it drops from my eyes…
In shadows…

I slowed down and I pulled over…to see the Loveless Traveler there, in the sand…Sun bleached bones and vultures leering…his song was in me.

And it’s a long, long road…
Goddamn the long, long road….
Yeah it’s a long, long road…I know.
Goddamn the long, long road…roll on.
And it’s a long, long road…I know... I know.

THE BELLES ON THE TYE
Oh, the Belles along the Tye make you hang your head and sigh…another day in Hungry Valley…creeping in.
This ghost has haunted me for so long…And the morning belle is singing…swimming in the dress she wore so long ago.

Oh, the Belles out on the Tye make you hang your head and cry……Another day in Hungry Valley slowly dies…
This girl has haunted me for so long…and the morning belles are reigning…living in the dust and ringing in the dawn…
