Mississippi sunset
She was standing like a candle
That hadn't been
burned yet
The wind was blowin'
Clouds like ashes
Had my hand in my pocket
Reaching
for my matches
Ican see those
Cotton sheets dancin'
On her mama's clothesline in my
head
From my lips a Lucky Strike was danglin'
The day was dyin' in a sea of
red
Then came the night
Warm and dark
Draggin' its chains
Across our
hearts
The moon was full
The grass was wet
Makin' us scream makin' us sweat
Holdin'
on tight
It was wrong it was right
Then came the night
There was a time
When
love was a flower
Now it's a vine
Climbin' up the tower
And the river just rolls
Past the garden
Where love won't grow
And the ground is hardened
I can see the
tattered white flag flyin'
I can hear the ringin' mission bell
Telling of the innocence
that's dyin'
A sound that i remember oh so well
Then came the night
Warm and
dark
Draggin' its chains
Across our hearts
The moon was full
The grass was
wet
Makin' us scream makin' us sweat
Makin' us cling makin' us claw
Makin' us rise
makin' us fall
Breath on breath, skin on skin
I can't go back, there again
Holdin' on
tight
It was wrong it was right
Then came the night
( I remember that sumer
I
was workin' for her daddy
I was still a boy
But i knew i was ready
When she reached out
and took my hand
She became a woman
ANd i became a man
I wonder if she still thinks
about me
The way i still think about her
You dont forget something like that
