III. TENNESSEE
You are the one with the cold, dark eyes
When you go, I could lose my mind
Oh the sun we are to live inside
The world we do without, moving on
in time
You are the one who could break my soul
and echo on all my crookedest thoughts
of these years I'm drowning under
A pain that flickers on, in the dark
We walked for miles through the night
Tennessee was all we had in our shadowed sky
And on and on we'd go till we lost our sight
and on and on we walked till our heads grew light
and on and on we'd go, till our heads grew light
You are the one with the cold, black eyes
When you go, I can see just when our love expires
Though I hope to be a better man
The life we never had will never come
We walked for miles through the night
Tennessee was all we had in our shadowed sky
Tennessee, empyreal, was our false heart's bride
and on and on we'd go till we lost our sight
and on and on we walked till our heads grew light
and on and on we'd go, Oh!
And on and on we'll go till our heads grow light
Oh, tell me sun, is this how to be alone?
Oh, tell me sun, is this how to be alone?
Oh, tell me son, is this how
