Hey blue rider

Where have you gone?


Still sitting on the back


Of your truck in the dawn?




How are you?


Where did you go?

Are you still kicking up dust


On country roads?




Yeah I know


I've fallen behind


But I can't keep you

Off my mind


Your sweet words


Ringing true

The loving, baby,


Is inside of you




Here it is


The latest news?


They killed rock n roll

When they ditched the blues





Here I am

Still running on fumes


Are you still shooting your needles


To the moon?




Oh man


It's been a while

Did you ever get used to


Going the extra mile?




Yeah I know


I'm falling behind


But I can't keep you

Off my mind


Your sweet words

Ringing true


The loving

Is inside of you




Hey blue rider

Out in the rain


Do you still dance at night

To the distant train?




Do you still sway back & forth

Whenever you stand?

Do you still burn your prayers


In an old tin can?



Yeah I know


I'm falling behind

But I can't keep you

Off my mind

Your sweet words


Ringing true

The loving, baby,

Is inside of you




Oh baby it's such

A quiet game

They take your heart


But they don't change your name



Yeah I know


I've fallen behind

But I cant keep you

Off my mind

Your sweet words

Ringing true

The loving

Is inside of you

The loving is inside of you

The loving is inside of you

The loving is inside of you
