I can wait at the canyon's corner and I'm back away I can see you looking into locuses that ease your mind Won't peel your cowl back, I'm shaking up and you're stepping down Put your cookies in the cooling rack, let's kiss the sky away, hey
Holding on to your fishing line I can feel the future just fine I can feel the future, baby It's tumbling down your cheek
but I can't see the past, oh no I'm no one contending, oh lord I can see your future life and that future life don't play
Dark streets, watch out Long streets, back home Dark streets, watch out Let's ride
Tied to the boats of my life, I'm a man of sanity No man is a sinking houseboat, yeah it just arrived Have you snuck off into parks land, shooting off the flare gun Are you in my office building, well I ain't dressed for the occasion
Oh, ain't that the way things work Ain't that the way things go Aren't those the stories we've been told Sister, let's ride again
Dark streets, watch out Red sun, come home Dark streets, watch out Well, let's ride
You can call me all night
I'm living like a lonely man, I'm living in this lonely land I'm living in an empty bed, watching those bars at night I'm leaving all the things I have, and I'm waiting on the canyon's edge I'm living like a lonely man, bring back your bars tonight
I'm living like a lonely man, I'm living on this lonely land I'm leaning on an empty bench, watching those bars at night but I'm leaving all the things I have, and I'm waiting on the canyon's edge I'm living in this lonely land, bring back your bars tonight, and let's ride
