lyrics

hey smile, in the halo light
bet your hopes it'll work out right
i dreamt i was hanging from a high bridge
i saw you underneath on a pilgrimage
you looked beaten down, i felt tired and old
ten men died for fool's gold
dim signals flashing through barbed wire
nothing to do but step right into the fire

and pray
maybe i'll see you again someday

i remember riding in the back of the car
they had you chained down, cause you'd gone too far
black clouds in your line of view
memories pushing pulling right through you
your eyes were talkin bout boarding a train
the dashboard said there was nothing left to gain
if i could move time around in my hands
i would set you adrift in a search for some strange land

and pray
maybe i'll see you again someday
