Longing

There's a solace in the stillness
Bathing in the amber wash of the fading sun
And the calm dewy coolness
Collecting in shadows casting in the East
If I could only stay here
If the stillness could last
I'm always chasing the past
There's an ocean in the sky
I think I'll sleep outside tonight
Sheltered beneath a canopy of galaxies
Memories like sirens
They're calling, haunting
Never satisfied in the present
I'm longing

Nostalgia is a river
The more I drink, the more I'm dry
Oh how I long to be satisfied
I'm chasing the dragon
In between a blur of pines
In a blur of highway lines
I'm summoning the Spirit
Driving alone on Highway 61
I think I held It then
With your feet on the dash
Singing songs that we both knew
Oh it's all I want to do

Memories like sirens
They're calling, haunting
Never satisfied in the present
I'm longing
It's so hard to get drunk
On the lower reaches of Joy
Oh what it would be like
To drink from the Spring that satisfies
Satisfied
