Long Time Comin' (Live at Brisbane Entertainment Centre, Boondall, Australia - 2/16/2017)

Out where the creek turns shallow and sandy
And the moon comes skimming away the stars
Wind in the mesquite comes rushing over the hilltops
Straight into my arms
Straight into my arms
Come on

Now, I'm riding hard carrying a cache of roses
And a fresh map that I made
Tonight, I'm gonna get birth naked and bury my old soul
And dance on its grave
And dance on its grave

It's been a long time coming, my dear
It's been a long time coming, but now it's here
Yeah, now it's here

Well, my daddy he was just a stranger
Lived in a hotel downtown
When I was a kid, he was just somebody
Somebody I'd see around
Somebody I'd see around

Well now, down below and pulling on my shirt
I got some kids of my own
If I had one wish in this godforsaken world, kids
It - your mistakes would be your own
Yeah, your sins would be your own

It's been a long time coming, my dear
It's been a long time coming, but now it's here
Yeah, now it's here

Out neath the arms of Cassiopeia
Where the sword of Orion sweeps
It's me and you, Rosie, crackling like crossed wires
You breathing in your sleep
You breathing in your sleep

Oh, there's just a spark of campfire left burning
Two kids in a sleeping bag beside
I reach neath your shirt, lay my hands across your belly and feel
Another one kicking inside
And I ain't gonna fuck it up this time

It's been a long time coming, my dear
It's been a long time coming, but now it's here
It's been a long time coming, my dear
It's been a long time coming, but now it's here
Yeah, now it's-
