Prayer

Back in the old days
Before we could bleed
When time was a mystery
Before the cocaine and speed

Hillbilly sailors
Steel ships we did ride
The highways our ocean
The morning our tide

A phone call this morning
Said have you heard the news
And as the sun broke the mountains
I said a prayer for you

Promising warriors
In a vagabond tribe
We laid on the lakeshore
Neath a tangerine sky

I talked of college
You talked of life
Neither was certain
But just one was right

A phone call this morning
Said have you heard the news
And as the sun broke the mountains
I said a prayer for you

I wished I'd of known you
I wished I'd of tried
To see through the answers
To the questions inside

But the past ain't no savior
Lord it's just where you've been
So I'll drink one to the memories
Till I see you again

A phone call this morning
Said have you heard the news
And as the sun broke the mountains
I said a prayer for you
I said a prayer for you
