Red Sky

from Trailways by Steve O'Connell

lyrics

We grew up wondering with souls to save.
One hand in the heavens, one foot in the grave.
And I haven't asked you for many things,
But where is that someday you've been promising.

And I never worried about you.
And I never worried about you.

So much for answer. So much for the deed.
So much for desire. So much for the need.
Cuz we all have something buried inside.
The hope of the sailor. The pull of the tide.

And I never worried about you.
And I never worried about you.

I watched you shimmer and I watched you shine.
I called you lover, at least for a time.
I feel that somehow I'm missing the sea.
Deep down I know that it ain't missing me.

The light from my window is beginning to break.
The sky and it's warning I never did take.
I try to to blame you. It's nothing you did.
But it's hard to stop drowning, refusing to swim.
