The Walkabouts - Your Hope Shines lyrics

Artist: The Walkabouts

album: New West Motel


Lay my body down
By the shallows of the creek
You can lay my body down
Lay me in your reach
And when my body's down
We'll steal the thunder from the rain
And when my body's down
We'll shake the dirt right from the pain
I was going nowhere (nowhere very fast)
Threw my poison out the window (but it came blowin' back)
Out along the highway (right through the night of crime)
Somewhere in the darkness
Your hope shined
Whisper wisdom's words
You can whisper wisdom's lies
But all of wisdom's words
Never helped me to survive
Days of all my arrogance (when you were not afraid)
Threw my paycheck out the window (you threw it all away)
Walked the devil's highway (across the county line)
Somewhere in the darkness
Your hope shines
♪
Your hope shined (in the dark of the city)
Your hope shined (in the dark of the city)
Your hope shined (in the dark of the city)
Your hope shined (your hope shined)
Walked the devil's highway, across the county line
(Your hope shined, your hope shined)
First light in the mornin', right through the night of crime
(Your hope shined, your hope shined)
♪
Lay my body down
By the shallows of the creek
