Hard Times In Babylon

I light a candle in your name
 Long past midnight, memories bright in the freeze frame
 And I'm asking myself why
 I see at the Marriott, funny little grin
 Driving those drums like a chariot
 Did it hurt too much to try?
 Woody you were my hero
 A shoulder to cry on when I bottomed out at zero
 In the hour of the wolf, just before the dawn
 Hard times in Babylon.
 O.K. so you had to go
 Take a walk on the wild side
 Down to the valley of the shadow
 But it just don't seem like you.
 Well you could have called out
 There's not a man or woman gathered tonight in the big house
 Wouldn't run to pull you through.
 An incident so grievous
 20 years ago you would have thought this is the way you would leave us
 In the hour of the wolf, just before the dawn
 Hard times in Babylon.
 Got to hang together when the air's this thin
 Hand out the masks for the oxygen
 Live for something
 We're coming upon a time in our lives
 When the little dreams live but the big dream dies
 Not for nothing, Not for nothing
 I know that love don't end
 Nothing I can do is gonna bring you back or let me see you again
 In the hour of the wolf, just before the dawn
 Hard times in Babylon.
 In the hour of the wolf, just before the dawn
 Hard times in Babylon.
