Standing up above and looking below

I know you thought you seen a halo

Getting down below what I've shown

You'll see just what I've known



It's one more hour 'til daybreak

I know I've had all I can take

I heard a secret that I can't shake

One wing at an iron gate

Jailbird half awake



Well I can't say there's nothing wrong here

with me, with me

She's one step over and one mile older

without me, without me



Devil in a white suit talking to me

He says I've got a heart full of kerosene

Says he keeps seeing me in the same dream

In the web of an old heartstring

That's breaking

Now down on my knees at the old tree

I brought this rabbit's foot with me

Faith is the noose in rope I've tied to me

In the tree that I've climbed, to be

Cut loose and set free



Well I can't say there is nothing wrong here

with me, with me

She's one step over and one mile older

without me, without me



Now standing up above and looking below

I know you thought you seen a halo

Getting down below what I've shown

You'll see just what I've known

A ring of fire and a rainbow



Well I can't say there is nothing wrong here

with me, with me

She's one step over and one mile older

without me, without me

She's one step over and one mile older

without me, without me
