Sparrow - shaman of the road
текст песни

Desert road that never ends

My eyes are burned and dry

When all the sand at last descends

A thunder splits the sky

A lonely filling station glows

A mystic phantom home

It strikes the porch light as it grows

Beneath the rain’s dark domeShaman of the road lives here

Shaman of the road awaits

He loathes the rush, the clamorous cheer

He turns you from ill fates

Wait until the morning light—

Just wait, hold tightUnder a strange and pallid light

A gray‑haired elder sits

In vintage garb of yesternight

He whispers measured bits

A sudden guitar found a tune

About the window

The neon sign became a moon

A fire‑cursive thingShaman of the road lives here

Shaman of the road awaits

He loathes the rush, the clamorous cheer

He turns you from ill fates

Wait until the morning light—

Just wait, hold tightThe calm the wind kept humming low

Brought solace soft and clear

It chased the weariness to go

Then drew the daylight near

At dawn the station and the sage

Were gone without a trace

Only the wind was left on stage

Then bowed and quit the placeShaman of the road lives here

Shaman of the road awaits

He loathes the rush, the clamor’s cheer

He turns you from ill fates

Wait until the morning light—

Just wait, hold tightThe calm the wind kept humming lower

Brought solace soft and clear

It chased the weariness to go

And drew the daylight near

At dawn the station and the sage were gone

Without a trace
