Tear Stained Eye

Lyrics

Walking down Main Street getting to know the concrete
 Looking for a purpose from a neon sign
 I would meet you anywhere, western sun meets the air
 We'll hit the road, never looking behind
 Can you deny, there's nothing greater
 Nothing more than the traveling hands of time?
 Sainte Genevieve can hold back the water
 But saints don't bother with a tear stained eye
 Seeing traces of the scars that came before
 Hitting the pavement still asking for more
 When the hours don't move along, worn out wood and familiar songs
 To hear your voice is not enough, it's more than a shame
 Can you deny, there's nothing greater
 Nothing more than the traveling hands of time?
 Sainte Genevieve can hold back the water
 But saints don't bother with a tear stained eye
 Like the man said, rode hard and put away wet
 Throw away the bad news, and put it to rest
 If learning is living, and the truth is a state of mind
 You'll find it's better at the end of the line
 Can you deny, there's nothing greater
 Nothing more than the traveling hands of time?
 Sainte Genevieve can hold back the water
 But saints don't bother with a tear stained eye
 Sainte Genevieve can hold back the water
 But saints don't bother with a tear stained eye
