Are You Saying That You Will Follow Through? Lyrics

I couldn't secure the thought

Long enough to pour the cast

The captain is trying to speak to me

This must be home, at last

In the end, all you remember

Is facts

Sundown. Smoke

Was hanging in the sky

She took a sip of rye

Blocked the light from her eyes

Looked off towards Cherai

To hide the tear she cried

Are you

Saying that you

Will follow through?

Say it again, so I know it's true

Sitting on a guard rail

She looked into the soul

Of a passing driver

Put her hand up and smiled

"Any direction's fine," she said

As he continued by

Are you

Saying that you

Will follow through?

Say it again, so I know it's true

Your lovers are all waiting

For you to come around

To do a circle round the globe

To their distant, tiny towns

And you're thinking you'll just stay here

Or move along as you please

Are you

Saying that you

Will follow through?

Say it again, so I know it's true

Yes, men and women on the road

Temporarily will come

And you may stay in some towns

A little longer than some

Wherever there's a space for you

To beat your drum

Are you

Saying that you

Will follow through?

Say it again, so I know it's true

One traveling boy, out of luck, told me how

He got scammed. He said keep your

Head and stumble through. There's nothing

Wrong or right to do. For every

Hundred or two, you can

Find one who's true

The night bird on the light post

And the flowers on the trail

And the mice running down the track

And the dawn that's starting to crack

And the trees that are out here swaying

And you
