Eyes Out For You - Joe Henry[00:00:01]
A fence is stretched across my brow[00:00:41]
A divided country then and now[00:00:46]
And you the border guard[00:00:49]
My caravan waved off the track[00:00:57]
With dusty miners hid in back[00:01:02]
Their faces glowing hard[00:01:05]
Bruised and black and hunkered down[00:01:13]
From sparkling fuses underground[00:01:17]
And digging the way through[00:01:22]
To surface on some other side[00:01:28]
With time to kill a past to hide[00:01:32]
And one eye out for you[00:01:38]
With letters cut from magazines[00:02:02]
I hide my hand and speak between[00:02:07]
The truth and what I need[00:02:10]
I lift the face of someone strong[00:02:18]
To mask the shadow growing long[00:02:22]
And blur what it concedes[00:02:25]
I've found myself out on a range[00:02:33]
Found the mirror staring strange[00:02:37]
Demanding what I knew[00:02:42]
Of tell-tale stripes across my back[00:02:48]
The eyes I keep each blue and black[00:02:52]
And both of them out for you[00:02:56]
Now I've crossed into some northern town[00:03:25]
Where winds rise up and stars come down[00:03:30]
And no one knows my name[00:03:34]
I stitch a coat from what I find[00:03:42]
And weave a story in my mind[00:03:46]
With nothing such as blame[00:03:50]
I scrawl out pages watch them burn[00:03:57]
The jumpy horses nod in turn[00:04:02]
The way I need them to[00:04:06]
Before I run them to the fields[00:04:13]
As buildings blaze and dot the hills[00:04:17]
Like all eyes out for you[00:04:21]
Like all eyes out for you[00:04:33]
Like all eyes out for you[00:04:50]
