lyrics

It only took one night with your eyes and skin across my chest
to turn my bones to molten glass, my skin to molten led.
I'd heard your voice a few times since and now my ears are keen
I've searched this whole damn forests since, I've up-turned every tree.

and this furnace fire ain't goin' out and you're no where to be seen

Mama said, "baby boy, gaurd your heart"
[boy] -"but I thnk that she'd love me if I got this armor off.
She'd see me for who I really am, she'd see I'd walked so far
but shits stuck to my skin and I'm not sure where you've gone.

I came down to the waterin' hole to get myself a drink.
It took my weight in whisky to know there's nothin like your taste.
I took a rest and thought real hard bout every little thing;
It could cost my life but mean the world to see her once again,

and 44,000 miles ain't far when you're at the other end

But mama said, "baby boy don't stray far
but Daddy's watchin' over you He knows you like a hawk.
He know's every anxious way -and ways that don't belong.
Every way within, oh, He listens like a song.

My blisters stack as blisters do, they're mats beneath my toes,
but they don't hurt quite so bad the times I think of you.
My name might mean nothin to you, it may just mean a word
but I'll search this whole damn world to find, I've got to know for sure.
