Colonnade (Live at Ocean Way Studio B) Lyrics

You were waiting for them indoors

And let them tell you

They were right

They're the ones waiting in fields of black and wet

And you're sleeping tonight

They all looked to you for the answers

They thought you'd be the one guessing right

One look at you and everyone's through saying we're all

Stuck in the night

Once they found you were what they need

You wished you had nothing to say

They all looked you and asked you to see us through

And you thought about riding days

Main event they were looking for

But you liked your Saturday Matinees

Rose in step hand outs and called them out

To brighter days

Kids ran up to you loved that you'd smile with 'em too

You'd never turn them away

Lifted up in the colonnade

They thought it'd be knot and shade

Work is done and for now

He's lifted up and out

He's smiling away

By the fires the passerbys said brother

Who who is he

Looking up and he's someone that I think

I'd like to be

Peace at last and the night left fast

They all followed out on bended knee

Home at last and what could you take from us

But set us free

Light touch and a mild eye

We liked your half smile and braids

One look at you with foot up and hand out

And we thought about your riding days

Shining down and no one's left wondering now

A half smile away
