Just before my grave, Selah With bones and weathered skin It's a grave to sin afar Afar from sheltered wings So I sit and close my eyes And try to shake this chain Shake the jingle-jangle dry Evaporate the pain But tonight, tonight The stars in line And it leaves a shade of wonder Yes tonight, tonight The star returns like thunder Crowded rooms and cheap cigars You came inside my home To erase the brutal scars and memories alone But tonight, tonight You look so bright And your smile returns a story Yes tonight, tonight Your eyes transcend the glory Just before my grave, Selah The old and weathered sun It's a grave to sin afar Rehearsed with wine and rum But tonight, tonight I leave this town as I shed my flesh desires Yes tonight, tonight I leave your mind in fire
