It Is Quite A Warm And Tender Place

"Today, my prayer consisted in simply going to my heart and remembering all the folks I've stored there. 

It is not cold storage. 

It is quite a warm and tender place"

All My Days

Well many a night I found myself with no friends standing near

All of my days

I cried aloud, I shook my hands, what am I doing here?

All of these days

For I look around me 

And my eyes confound me 

And it's just too bright

As the days keep turning into night

Now I see clearly

It's you I'm looking for

All of my days

So I'll smile

I know I'll feel this loneliness no more

All of my days

For I look around me

And it seems you found me

And it's coming into sight

As the days keep turning into night

As the days keep turning into night

And even breathing feels alright

Yes, even breathing feels alright

Colder Weather

... At a truck stop diner just outside of Lincoln,

The night is black as the coffee he was drinkin',

And in the waitress' eyes he sees the same 'ol light shinin',

He thinks of Colorado

And the girl he left behind him ...

Oh I wanna see you again

But I'm stuck in colder weather

Maybe tomorrow will be better

Can I call you then?

Cause I'm a ramblin' man

I ain't ever gonna change

I got a gypsy soul to blame

And I was born for leavin' (born for leavin')

When I close my eyes I see you

No matter where I am

I can smell your perfume through these whispering pines

I'm with your ghost again

It's a shame about the weather

But I know soon we'll be together

And I can't wait 'til then

I can't wait 'til then
