Howlin Rain - Phantom In The Valley lyrics

rate me

My will goes cold, like a satellite

Marooned on a long forgotten world

Damn my eyes, I was mesmerized

As I watched the road to nowhere unfurl

I dreamed you upon me beneath that old moon

And a dirty tepid wind whistled an undertaker's tune

Out in the valley, past the burning trees

My soul like the ash of crickets, falling to their knees

Somewhere out in the dark, pass the walnut orchards

And the barroom abattoirs

Somewhere into the blue, I can almost see your smile

Fading from my view

I staggered like a crow into the empire

Where the floating seeds of star thistles twirl

I weaved the leaning poles and old telephone wires

Like dusty notes of music, at the far end of the world

I dream of radiation, a zeppelin balloon

A nuclear winter, a bonny spring monsoon

Beyond the splitting atoms

Past the ruined sea

My soul like the test site flowers

burning in the breeze

Somewhere out in the dark, pass the walnut orchards

And the barroom abattoir

Somewhere into the blue, I can almost see your smile

Fading from my view

Somewhere out in the dark, pass the walnut orchards

And the barroom abattoir

Somewhere into the blue, I can almost see your smile

Fading from my view

Somewhere out in the dark, pass the walnut orchards

And the barroom abattoir

Somewhere into the blue, I can almost see your smile

Fading from my view

I call you... I call out to you...

I call you...I call out to you...

Only coyotes sang when I called out your name

Only cold wicked rain when I called out your name...

When I called out your name!
