Ain't No Music - Deadman

I woke last night in a fever

My mind was feeling all confused

I swore I heard the back door open

And I thought for a minute it was you

That’s when all feelings, well, they hit me

Like I stepped into an oncoming train

And from the deepest part of me I am yearning

Like the earth when she’s yearning for the rain

And there ain’t no music when she’s gone, lord, lord

There ain’t no music when she’s gone

There ain’t no music when she’s gone, lord, lord

There ain’t no music when she’s gone

And the crows in the field, they are calling

And the grey is on the winter grass

And the heart is such a vast wilderness

And the way is very rough and very fast

And the sun is tired and sleepy

And the moon says she’s feeling blue

And I’m tempted every hour by the whiskey

And I don’t know what the hell I’m going to do

And there ain’t no music when she’s gone, lord, lord

There ain’t no music when she’s gone

There ain’t no music when she’s gone, lord, lord

There ain’t no music when she’s gone

I had a dream last evening

We were standing in Yachts by the sea

The ocean below, it was a-breaking

And you were standing so close to me

You lifted up your arms to take a picture

And then the camera fell into the waves

I woke up to a storm raging

And the image blurred and went away

And there ain’t no music when she’s gone, lord, lord

There ain’t no music when she’s gone

There ain’t no music when she’s gone, lord, lord

There ain’t no music when she’s gone
