I could come by rail
Or baby I could come by car
I've been missin' you and
Houston ain't that far
Yeah, and I cannot remember all the reasons that you left
I know none of them rings true inside my heart
I bet you're drinkin' as you go
But baby you're so full of holes
I'm surprised the whiskey doesn't pour right out
I may not be your best choice
But I thought love could fill the void
If you need something that will not let you down…
When the tide comes and wets the embers
Of the fire you tried to keep
Just remember
That I will wait for you
With these tears of blood
I weep.
It's lookin' like a storm out here
On the highway 61
At least that's where we were before I fell asleep
Yeah, me and all the boys are livin' hard out on the road
I know you don't care…
Just talkin' as I think
When the tide comes and wets the embers
Of the fire you tried to keep
Just remember
That I will wait for you
With these tears of blood
I weep
If you could teach me how
I swear I'd stay on the ground
I just feel like
I am falling down…
When time has washed away all of the emptiness and pain
The parts the booze and pills just couldn't kil
Hope you turn and come back home
I'll be waitin' here alone
Cause I swear to God I know I'll love you still
When the tide comes and wets the embers
Of the fire you tried to keep
Just remember
That I will wait for you
With these tears of blood
I weep
When the tide comes and wets the embers
Of the fire you tried to keep
Just remember
That I will wait for you
With these tears of blood
I weep
These tears of blood
I weep
