Roland Dixon - Orphan & Exile Lyrics

I drifted awhile among Belzoni pines
Blew my wad trying to reach you at the miss'ry line
But the tongues of my torch grew weary for touch
And I longed for you baby maybe one night too much
So I picked up my bags on the banks of San Lou
As humming old muddy she sharpened my tools
While the weariest moments of a hundred bad nights
Conspired in her cornfields to purple the light
I lingered on your kiss but the moment expired
Now I'm a wreck on a highway where the road is retired
Once I came to you baby in tragic relief
Now I can't help but laugh with the world at my grief
Its all one big puzzle out there to get solved
But I'm beginning to forget why I came here at all
So I'll bury my head in the breast of your dark
And wake at the basin where catbirds bark
See, every instant yer reckoning ain't coming its here
So dissolve in the twilight and write down your dreams
And listen to the silence and the rattle of trains
And let the wind be the medicine to your pain
Come healing, Come healing
The moon, she is revealing
The sun is alive
Though the light is retreating
Mohammeds moved on,
We'll meet him in egypt
Mark down my words,
Come Healing, Come Healing
Come healing, Come healing
Surrounded, Defeated,
What should I do now,
My will is depleted,
The moonlight is starving
On the face of Jynna
The fires aren't starting
Come healing, Come healing
