(+) Steel Tongue Drum | "POLARIS"
Across the street the
river runs
Down in the gutter life
is slipping away
Let me still exist in
another place
Running under cover of
a helicopter blade
The flames are getting
higher in effigy
Burning down the bridges
of my memory
Love may still be alive
somewhere someway
where they're downing
only deer
a hundred steel towns away
Oh rhythm of my heart
is beating like a drum
with the words "I love
you" rolling off my tongue
No never will I roam
for I know my place
is home
where the ocean meets
the sky
I'll be sailing
Photographs and kerosene
light up my darkness
light it up, light it up
I can still feel the
touch of your thin
blue jeans
Running down the alley
I've got my eyes all
over you baby
Oh baby
Oh the rhythm of my
heart is beating like
a drum
with the words
"I love you" rolling
off my tongue
No never will I roam
for I know my place
is home
where the ocean meets
the sky I'll be sailing
I'll be sailing
Oh I've got lightning
in my veins
shifting like the handle
of a slot machine
Love may still exist
in another place
I'm just yanking back
the handle
no expression on
my face
Oh the rhythm of my
heart is beating like
a drum
with the words
"I love you" rolling
off my tongue
Never will I roam for
I know my place is home
where the ocean meets
the sky
I'll be sailing
Oh the rhythm of my
heart is beating
like a drum
with the words
"I love you" rolling
off my tongue
No never will I roam
for I know my place
is home
where the ocean meets
the sky
I'll be sailing
The rhythm of my heart
is beating like a drum
with the words
"I love you" rolling
off my tongue
Never will I roam for
I know my place is home
where the ocean meets
the sky
I'll be sailing
