lyrics

Before the winds
Hit by change of blow
And the beast of freedom
Leaves you alone and low

You’re lost at sea and you drink it dry
The world is scary but you’ll never die

Uhh-uhh ah-ah na-na-na
Honky-tonk along the long-long line
The caveman’s the caveman’s lament

Before you collide
And scatter your things
Say farewell to friends
Lose feathers and wings

Time always tells you when it’s time to quit
And every dark cheers you up a bit

Before the wild grows
And the legs cave in
And before you know
The lone voice stops to sing

Your eyes are leading you through misery
Love is blind as blind can be
