I sailed to the edge of the world
And I fell into the abyss
There I met a girl
Wandrin' in the mist

Oh, how there is no time, when you live the life sublime

I got an old black dog - turns out he's my best friend
His muzzle is gray - he always looks a little thin
He was on his own for a long time - it isn't easy for him
But he gets up every morning and says “OK, let's start again”

I want to sit with you
Down by the river
Everybody wants to get next to you
‘Cause you’re a giver

But I want to see
Can you put it into my eyes
How you can believe when it's dark
Maybe I'm just not the kind

"The birds, they all head south 
as soon as it gets cold,
And me, I better watch my mouth
or so I've been told.
Another day has come around,
and I can't take my eyes off the edge of town."

The streets are filled with rubble from some forgotten war
They'd like to fight it all again but we can't take it anymore
Oh, misery be warned - there's only so much can be borne

A man drove across the plains with a wife with dead eyes
A car he had to push to start and a suitcase full of lies
But every place just looked the same - Nowhere to start again
With a no good battered heart - Afraid to look within
He's a lonesome American

"It’s a rich and beautiful world 
So much to see when you travel about 
But when you’re a lonely girl 
You can get lost in a house"

On the porch, the fireflies gather 'round the glow of your cigarette
Sittin' out in the evenin' time ‘cause the house ain’t cooled off yet…

the tables are turned on their sides
