Silver Saddle

Tonight you've caught your breath
You've lost your American spirit
If only I could catch my death, yeah
Just give me long enough to fear it

Her talk ain't like the other girls
She takes my livin' at a glance
We hear the locusts rasp back and forth
And through the thoughts, the past does dance

Do I waste my time?
Yeah well you know it
And as I stroll through the room, see
My features show it

Feel the hand on my shoulder, yeah
It calls me to dwell
Take a breath hard and clear, yeah
Like a hammer on a church bell
