Javelin

Back in town, all by myself

I should go dancing, take my boots off the shelf

Don't be concerned, babe, at least not yet

I am still happy to be breathing in

You know I have been, you know I have been traveling

Through the air and down the highway like a javelin

Towards this old cow town in the Bible Belt

Remember when they asked us, baby, just how it felt?

To be alone in the middle of Middle America

When the sun moves behind the moon and the earth goes black

Mama, it's like that

Mama, it's like that

How long's forever, babe? Is it just one day?

The day we go in, then we escape

Am I a husband? Am I a husband?

Could this be our life, babe? Would you be my wife, babe?

Everything ending now (hey, hey)

Into a beginning now (hey, hey)

And When you fall, you get back up, don't run

And time paints a picture now, (hey, hey)

The world will eclipse you now (hey, hey)

And When you fall, you get back up, don't run

Towards this old cow town in the Bible Belt

Remember when they asked us, baby, just how it felt?

To be alone, just the two of us in Middle America

When the moon moves behind the sun and the earth lights up

Mama, mama, mama, that was us

(Time is flashing out, time is a picture now)

(When you fall, you get back up, don't run)

Mama, that was us

(Time is flashing out, the world is spinning 'round)

(When you fall, you get back up, don't run)

Mama, that was us

(Time is flashing out, time is a picture now)

(When you fall, you get back up, don't run)

Mama, that was us

(Time is flashing out, the world is spinning 'round)

(When you fall, you get back up, don't run)
