Tear Stained Eye

Walking down Main Street

Getting to know the concrete

Looking for a purpose from a neon sign

I would meet you anywhere the western sun meets the air

We'll hit the road, never looking behind

Can you deny, there's nothing greater

Nothing more than the traveling hands of time?

Sainte Genevieve can hold back the water

But saints don't bother with a tear stained eye

Seeing traces of the scars that came before

Hitting the pavement still asking for more

When the hours don't move along,

Worn-out wood and familiar songs

To hear your voice is not enough

It's more than a shame

Can you deny, there's nothing greater

Nothing more than the traveling hands of time?

Sainte Genevieve can hold back the water

But saints don't bother with a tear stained eye

Like the man said, rode hard and put away wet

Throw away the bad news, and put it to rest

If learning is living, and the truth is a state of mind

You'll find it's better at the end of the line.

Can you deny, there's nothing greater

Nothing more than the traveling hands of time?

Sainte Genevieve can hold back the water

But saints don't bother with a tear stained eye.
