Red Wing Blue Wing - Dead Man Winter

It was a quiet night, night by my window

A night in a small town, that I barely know

And I stay up late, watching the sin go

From my head, down to my toes

And I feel the wind and it is burning

Burning like shadow and it’s not alright

And I go to work where I am earning

All of the simple things in life

I’m full of charm and I’m full of whiskey

And I’m full of shit, most of the time

When I go home, will you go with me

And will you hold me up when you say goodbye

You can have my breath and you can have my darkness

And you can have my blood if it gets you high

Oh but I won’t be fooled, by your short dress

I won’t give in, yeah I will not die

When the lights come on, it’s time to go home

Took a different way, than the one you know

I didn’t like the verse, didn’t like the chorus

Didn’t like the song, but now I do

I didn’t sing the words, like the one before it

I didn’t think of me, I didn’t think of you

But it brings us in, yeah it pulls us under

Where the water’s cold and the fish don’t bite

And the daylight blurs, and it feels like sleeping

And you say your prayers, and you say goodnight
