LYRICS

Salute the sun
I’ve been sitting here all night long
Hauling rock over Buddha with the Longhorn
I got a hole, so rip a pocket off my uniform
With the Blackwatch Boys get your heads down

Oooh
Duty calls, but it’s way too late
I’m too far gone
Waiting for Godot hell
With my pants down
Cracked the stash
Sent me crying in the midday sun
I miss my dog, and I miss my freedom
Ooh ooh oohh

I don’t know why they are calling on the radio
They know I’m here just out of sight
I don’t know why they are calling on the radio
He’s by my side, and I know I’m right
I don’t know why they are calling on the radio
They know I’m here just out of sight
I don’t know why they are calling on the radio
He’s by my side, and I know I’m right

I hate the things I think about you
When I’m all alone
I know you’re tough
But I’ve been gone
For so long
I play the memories of you
Inside my head
So all those pictures of us
Burn and radiate
Watch the clouds, and I’m falling
Falling through the cracks
Head beats
And the heart is pounding fast
Off the ground
Into the starry dark, into your arms
I’m falling
Ooh ooh oohh

I don’t know why they are calling on the radio
They know I’m here just out of sight
I don’t know why they are calling on the radio
He’s by my side, and I know I’m right
I don’t know why they are calling on the radio
They know I’m here just out of sight
I don’t know why they are calling on the radio
He’s by my side, and I know I’m right

My brain, my body’s fried
I’ve got to stay alive
I’ve gotta take a chance and keep on moving
Keep on moving

I don’t know why they are calling on the radio
They know I’m here just out of sight
I don’t know why they are calling on the radio
He’s by my side, and I know I’m right
I don’t know why they are calling on the radio
They know I’m here just out of sight
I don’t know why they are calling on the radio
He’s by my side, and I know I’m right

(I see your light from miles away)

I don’t know why they are calling on the radio
They know I’m here just out of sight
I don’t know why they are calling on the radio
He’s by my side, and I know I’m right
I don’t know why they are calling on the radio
They know I’m here just out of sight
I don’t know why they are calling on the radio
He’s by my side, and I know I’m alright

(I see your light from miles away)

Oooh oh oohh

(I see your light from miles away)

Oooh oh oohh
