Your Love is My Rest — текст песни (John Hiatt)

These are the words

That cry out of me in the night

Like a buffalo herd

From a shotgun blast scattered in flight

I got a one track mind

Going down a one train line

Living on dreams half the time

Going west



I gotta pick up speed

Just to get what I need

The end of the line guaranteed

Your love is my rest



The coal catches fire

Im down the wire in a flash

That big old smoke stack

Is belching out black smoke and ash

So sad to think of

Hurting the one you love

But surely thats what leaving does

Youd know best



I gotta pick up speed

Just to get what I need

The end of the line guaranteed

Your love is my rest

Your love is my rest



We pass through the land

Of custers last stand

And I grin

So this is where old yellow hairs

Ghost dance begins

I got the blood on my hands

Cant even live where I stand

Im just a traveling man

Cursed or blessed



I gotta pick up speed

Just to get what I need

The end of the line guaranteed

Your love is my rest

Your love is my rest

Your love is my rest
