No More (And One Fine Morning--)

And he sits in the bar
In the back of the room
With his head in his hands
And his hands on the table
He wearing the weight
Of a man on the move
Running somewhere
Without any end

As he raises his glass
To the friends he remembers
The table is empty and
Nobody hears when
He toasts to the love
Of a life that was lost
And his hands start to tremble
The lights start to fade

One more
One more
One more
Body hits the road

He says
"No more
Running
No more escape
It's been so many years since I've seen her face
Maybe now I'll start over today"

As he looks at his fist
Raised triumph, in failure
His face twisted up in disgust
At his state
And he says
This is all just a
Misunderstanding
He stumbles out into the night

Head raised
Arms raised
In surrender to the Loss

He says
"No more
Running
No more escape
It's been so many years since I've seen her face
Maybe now I'll start over, today"
Over today
Over today
As one more body hits the road

Have you ever seen somebody
Losing themselves
To the scent of the night
And the grace of the pavement
We watch for a while
And we say, "what a shame"
As the days and the years disappear
One more
No more
Brace your
Body for the road
