Lyrics

We planned to leave early
And to pack unheavy
Because the truck was getting full
But the same old fear
At the end of the year
Wouldn't let us leave so soon

The blue ridge mountains were calling
The rain was falling
The wind was in our faces
And above the sound
Of the engine I found us
Arriving at those places

I've heard you say a
Thousand times
That we could never leave
This town
But where were you last night
When the sun went down

The rain proved steady
And as our packs wore heavy
With the weight of our survival
The woods rang loud
With the love of our god
And the sound of our revival
The summer wind turned colder
As the day grew older
The night would soon surround us
The curtis falls
Had a view of it all
As the snow fell all around us

I've heard you say a
Thousand times
That we could never leave
This town
But where were you last night
When the sun went down

I was singing alone
You were standing on the side
And the water so warm
As you walked the mountain side
And you washed my feet and cried

Well, the days passed quickly
And our time was over
Three souls the same in sorrow
But the reds and rain
Put an intimate stain
On the start of our tomorrow

And soon our pieces will scatter
In a world of anger
The only thing to free us
Is the part of man
That we don't understand
That found a place between us

I've heard you say a
Thousand times
That we could never leave
This town
But where were you last night
When the sun went down
