You traded for silver a chain made of gold

Just to find out that a diamond was just really old coal I saw you out riding, had your hands on the reigns Your heart like the throttle on an old funeral train

If tomorrow weren’t coming

I thinks what you said

Would you bring me some comfort Or try to save me instead?

Silence is deadly, like the sound of a gun To a bird on a wire when it’s lost in a song I saw you out hiding all of your shame By a stone in the River neath a cold winter rain

Now there’s wine in the chalice and theres bread on the plate Can they buy you forgiveness for the dreams we’ve betrayed?

You won’t see me tomorrow cause she was already here And all that she left me was the brine for some tears

If tomorrow weren’t coming

I thinks what she said

Would you bring me some comfort Or try to save me instead?
