The Pull

Summertime came too soon
Summers in Kansas often do
And the air was still
I felt the pull

I recall the heat rising
From the ground in waves
And I knew I was
The first to pass this way

I believe I stepped
Across some line
Or I stumble through
The doorway to space and time
Like a drunk
Who blacks out from the wine
Never remembers his name

I always feel so alone
Wherever I am
I feel the pull
And the life I've left
Behind the pull

And in case I have no future
I've got the past
There's no telling just
How long this play will last

I believe I stepped
Across some line
Or I stumble through
The doorway to space and time
Like a drunk
Who blacks out from the wine
Never remembers his name
Never remembers

I'm down, walking through a storm
I hear a voice inside crying
It calls my name like a judge accusing
Black robe hanging down
Oh, don't forget be brave about your love

When I walk across
The monkey moon
Anger flashes in my eyes
I don't know what I'm doing

Like a drunk
Who blacks out from the wine
Never remembers his name

Like a drunk
Who blacks out from the wine
Never remembers his name
Never remembers his name
I never remember my name
