| [00:16.22] | it's desert ice outside but this diner has thawed my ears |
| [00:22.65] | hot coffee in a clean white mug and a smile when the waitress hears |
| [00:30.37] | that I was born in North Carolina |
| [00:34.11] | not an hour from her home town |
| [00:37.81] | and we used to play the same pizza parlor pinball |
| [00:43.97] | |
| [00:45.38] | and there's a glance in time suspended as I wonder how it is |
| [00:52.33] | we've been swept up just by circumstance to where the coyote lives |
| [01:00.11] | where my days are strips of highway |
| [01:04.61] | and she's wiping tables down |
| [01:08.27] | holding on and still waiting for that windfall |
| [01:14.89] | |
| [01:16.41] | but I've come home |
| [01:23.99] | even though I've never had so far to go |
| [01:31.79] | I've come home |
| [01:44.09] | |
| [01:48.18] | I pay the check and leave the change from a crumpled ten-dollar bill |
| [01:54.49] | head across the street where VACANCY is burning in neon still |
| [02:02.18] | well the night eats up my body heat |
| [02:06.28] | and there's no sign of another |
| [02:09.77] | and I find myself slipping down into that black |
| [02:17.23] | |
| [02:17.92] | but things are good I've got a lot of followers of my faith |
| [02:25.01] | I've got a whole congregation living in my head these days |
| [02:32.41] | and I'm preaching from the pulpit |
| [02:36.43] | to cries of “Amen brother” |
| [02:40.87] | closing my eyes to feel the warmth come back |
| [02:48.07] | |
| [02:48.29] | and I've come home |
| [02:55.25] | even though I swear I've never been so alone |
| [03:03.06] | I've come home |
| [03:16.74] | |
| [03:18.39] | I just want to be living as I'm dying |
| [03:23.11] | just like everybody here |
| [03:26.32] | just want to know my little flicker of time is worthwhile |
| [03:33.65] | and I don't know where I'm driving to |
| [03:37.99] | but I know I'm getting old |
| [03:41.54] | and there's a blessing in every moment every mile |
| [03:56.59] | |
| [04:05.08] | thin white terry bars of soap and a couple little plastic cups |
| [04:12.23] | old Gideons Bible in the nightstand drawer saying “Go on open up” |
| [04:20.04] | well I'll kneel down on the carpet here |
| [04:23.85] | though I never was sure of God |
| [04:27.33] | think tonight I'll give Him the benefit of the doubt |
| [04:33.14] | |
| [04:35.53] | I switch off the lights and imagine that waitress outlined in the bed |
| [04:42.55] | her hair falling all around me |
| [04:47.10] | I smile and shake my head |
| [04:50.38] | well we all write our own endings |
| [04:54.51] | and we all have our own scars |
| [04:58.28] | but tonight I think I see what it's all about |
| [05:05.75] | |
| [05:05.93] | because I've come home |
| [05:21.49] | I've come home |
| [00:16.22] | it' s desert ice outside but this diner has thawed my ears |
