Cowboy Junkies Blue Eyed Savior Lyrics

Blue Eyed Savior Lyrics

Where'd you go, my blue eyed savior?

Where'd you go, my darling one?

Lying on that field of honor

Not sure what you're waiting on



And she won't let him through the door

Her mind is ticking through those tumbling years

The one's he's promised he'd be there for

She says, "Hope the belief that loved ones will never die"

I've never heard such nonsense, never heard such lies



What to do with our sputtering engine?

What to do with our fading star?

Leaving us to wander freely

Trying to find out where we are



And I can't bear to see him go

There is just too much left on the table

There has been too much left alone

She says, "Hope the belief that loved ones will never die"

I've never heard such nonsense, never heard such lies



Listen to my wide eyed bundle

Listen to them assail the night

Lost again in their caves of wonder

Leaving us alone outside



And I can barely stand the simple pleasure

Each breath carrying just a little more weight

As I bend to adjust the comforter

I think, "Hope the belief that loved ones will never die"

I've never heard such nonsense, never heard such lies



I think, "Hope the belief that loved ones will never die"

I've never heard such nonsense, never heard such lies
