Innocence it don't come easy, in a sense it never will
Accidents mean no one's guilty, ignorance means someone's killed
So I asked our Mr. Mellow how to get to where one's going
And he points to his survival, and he points me down the road

As I go on and on
Wondering if I've got a soul
Counting down the hours 'till it goes

On a dark wet night in April on a street in Jersey where
I went looking for some writing that I knew would not be there
And a punter from the Pelhams and the police in the rain,
Were concerned more with a car than with the fact the light had changed
But after listening all morning as I drove down 95
To a story of detaniees who were barely kept alive
I could deal with trying to process pigeons acting like they're doves
But not with interference from the powerlines above

As I go on and on
Wondering if I've got a soul
Counting down the hours 'till it goes

And oh precautions, yes precaution
But if you're playing with a gun, well you could kill someone
And in the dark it's hard to know a friend
But I'm not angry, I won't be forever angry

As I'm walking toward tomorrow with a rifle in my hand
And I'm thinking 'bout New England and I'm missing old Japan
And a mountain in California where a spring runs hot and cold
And if I told you I felt ageless, would you tell me I'm not old

As I go on and on
Wondering if I've got a soul
Counting down the hours 'till it goes
On and on
Wondering if I've got a soul
Counting down the hours 'till it goes

  • The One Who Got Us Out
    "I know I like doing a lot of talking. Time goes on, I'm talking still
    While Soldier girls are dodging grenades

    And they say, it's the only way..."
  • Little Dawn
    "Well Little Dawn walks on,
    and she thinks she don't belong under the starry heights
    So take a sigh as long as the war's been going on in your heart tonight
    And if you want to make that light, go on and swim across the ocean..."

    "I had a golden ring and I kept it with golden things
    In the Bank of Million dreams that was bursting at all the seams
    I had a golden ring. It was such an important thing
    That I kept it beneath my bed, and I carried it in my head..."
  • Shake The Sheets

    while war is raging everywhere under the sky?
    I feel defeated here by everything,
    cheated here by everyone on every side..."
  • Bleeding Powers
    "All the time you were keeping me straight I was bleeding powers
    In my mind it was never too late, and the days were hours
    And sure the waves still make spray at the old sea wall...
    And the road leads somewhere, but it's not yet to your door..."
