I found you on the roadside in the dirt
this highways just another dead end
i held you on my on my shoulders
a man with the world on his back
i see you in the moonlight
in death your radiance lit the sky
a cigarette is the only warmth ill feel tonight
In the graveyard hour i talk to you
but my words fall on death ears
i tip my hat to the falling sun
because he brought me your bones
i laid you cold ground, knelt to pray
take this our wandering child for this day
A penny for the ferryman his path is sown
we give our repentance to guide you home
In the graveyard hour i talk to you
but my words fall on deaths ear
i tip my hat to the falling sun
because he brought me your bones
and so i give you up to the sky, up to the sky, my lord take her home, walk her home
the dirt beneath the nails of a working man, he's done his day, his day, made his way, dug his grave
i wont let you go
In the graveyard hour i talk to you
but my words fall on death ears
i tip my hat to the rising sun
because he's guiding you home
guide me home
take me home
