There's a long distance train rolling through the rain

Tears on the letter I write

There's a woman I long to touch

and I missin' her so much

But she's drifting like a satellite

There's a neon light ablaze in the green smoky haze

And laughter down on Elizabeth Street

There's a lonesome bell tone in that valley of stone

Where she bathed in a stream of pure heat

Her father would emphasize

you got to be more than street-wise

But he practiced what he preached from the heart

A full-blooded Cherokee

He predicted it to me

The time and the place that we part

There's a babe in the arms of a woman in a rage

And a longtime golden-haired stripper on stage

And she winds back the clock

and she turns back the page

Of a book that nobody can write

Oh where are you tonight

The truth was obscure

Too profound and too pure

To live it you had to explode

And at the last hour of need

We entirely agreed

Sacrifice was the code of the road

I left town at dawn

With Marcel and St John

Strong men belittled by doubt

I couldn't tell her what my private thoughts were

But she had some way of finding them out

He took dead-center aim

But he missed just the same

She was waiting putting flowers on the shelf

She could feel my despair as I climbed up her hair

And discovered her invisible self

There's a lion in the road

There's a demon escaped

There's a million dreams gone

There's a landscape being raped

As her beauty fades and I watch her undrape

But I won't but then maybe again I might

Oh if I could just find you tonight

I fought with my twin

That enemy within

'Til both of us fell by the way

Horseplay and disease is killing me by degrees

While the law looks the other way

Your partners in crime hit me up for nickels and dimes

The man you were loving couldn't never get clean

It felt out of place

My foot in his face

But he should've stayed where his money was green

I bit into the root of forbidden fruit

With the juice running down my leg

Then I dealt with your boss

Who'd never known about loss

Who always was too proud to beg

There's a white diamond gloom

On the dark side of this room

And a pathway that leads up to the stars

If you don't believe

there's a price for this sweet paradise

Just remind me to show you the stars

There's a new day at dawn

And I've finally arrived

If I'm there in the morning

Baby you'll know I've survived

I can't believe it I can't believe I'm alive

But without you it doesn't seem right

Oh where are you tonight
