Sundowner

Goodnight for a little while
Between every hour, there are letters in piles
Your tide is at midnight and noon
I'm pushing back water like the pull of the moon

Sundowner sinking behind horizon line
Hiding from what he must do
Sundowner's ready for your morning to rise
And I'd kill all those miles for you

First times not always learned
The second time through you are battered and burned
And Trouble tells you to believe
Ties you to a white flag and laughs with Misery

Sundowner sinking behind horizon line
Hiding from what he must do
Sundowner's ready for your morning to rise
And I'd kill all those miles for you

Take back the words that we said
Folks say their worst when they are beaten and bled
Sundowner's rushing through town
Appear overnight and expect to settle down

Sundowner sinking behind horizon line
Hiding from what he must do
Sundowner's ready for your morning to rise
And I'd kill all those miles for you

After the storm ends, the cicada's swell
And the sky is sapphire blue
This Sundowner's ready to climb from his well
And kill all these miles for you

I'd kill all these miles for you
