One of my best friends died of illness when this song came out... I remember being 13, laying in my bed just bawling my eyes out with this song playing. Hello my friend, we meet again. It's been so long, where do we begin?

 

 

This one reminds me of my uncle that died of a heart attack when I was 6 or so. That hit hard, I have a big family and he was the only one to ever pay attention to me. I broke his mountain bike on accident one day, I was riding it down a big hill at my grandmother's house. I promised him I'd buy him a new bike, but never got the chance.

On the Sunday mornin' sidewalk

wishin' Lord that I was stoned

'cause there's somethin' in Sunday

that makes a body feel alone

and there's nothing short of dyin'

half as lonesome as the sound

of a sleepin' city sidewalk

Sunday mornin' comin' down

I don't want to hear a love song
I got on this airplane just to fly
And I know there's life below
But all that it can show me
Is the prairie and the sky

And I don't want to hear a sad story
Full of heartbreak and desire
The last time I felt like this
It was in the wilderness and the canyon was on fire
And I stood on the mountain in the night and I watched it burn
I watched it burn, I watched it burn.

I would rock my soul in the bosom of Abraham
I would hold my life in his saving grace.
I would walk all the way from Boulder to Birmingham
If I thought I could see, I could see your face.

Well you really got me this time
And the hardest part is knowing I'll survive.
I have come to listen for the sound
Of the trucks as they move down
Out on ninety five
And pretend that it's the ocean
coming down to wash me clean, to wash me clean
Baby do you know what I mean

I would rock my soul in the bosom of Abraham
I would hold my life in his saving grace.
I would walk all the way from Boulder to Birmingham
If I thought I could see, I could see your face.
