Beggar's Blues

Night train, silver moon You ask me why, I'm flyin' To float on ashen wings To choke on dust and feather I learned you are a liar It's right we should pretend And lie with one another It's right we should be twins For I have loved no other Look for me baby Well I'm draggin' lonliness And it's ten miles long I thought I heard you scream baby In the wheels of a train that crawls When I don't want to go Cause you forget me when I'm gone, whoa Look for me baby Whenever ice is glistening upon the glass D'ya ever find your dream baby Well God knows I never hear mine close enough I watched 'em slip away like this, whoa I've been from one end of this street to the other Now I want the gifts ya promised me lover Look for me baby Crow fly by with sister and brother Deadly as a kiss, a sin to one another Look for me baby Well I'm draggin' lonliness and it's ten miles long I thought I heard you scream baby In the wheels of a train that crawls And I don't want to go 'Cause you forget me when I'm gone, whoa Night train, silver moon You ask me why am I flyin' To float on ashen wings To choke on dust and feather My dreams will go no further Won't calm my violent river Oh guardian of peace Let the beggar walk in the winter Look for me baby Look for me baby Look for me baby Look for me baby That's all --- Beggar's Blues - Mark Lanegan
