Cowboy Junkies Blue Eyed Savior lyrics

Where'd you go, my blue eyed savior?
Where'd you go, my darling one?
Lying on that field of honor
Not sure what you're waiting on

And she won't let him through the door
Her mind is ticking through those tumbling years
The one's he's promised he'd be there for
She says, "Hope the belief that loved ones will never die"
I've never heard such nonsense, never heard such lies

What to do with our sputtering engine?
What to do with our fading star?
Leaving us to wander freely
Trying to find out where we are

And I can't bear to see him go
There is just too much left on the table
There has been too much left alone

She says, "Hope the belief that loved ones will never die"
I've never heard such nonsense, never heard such lies

Listen to my wide eyed bundle
Listen to them assail the night
Lost again in their caves of wonder
Leaving us alone outside

And I can barely stand the simple pleasure
Each breath carrying just a little more weight
As I bend to adjust the comforter
I think, "Hope the belief that loved ones will never die"
I've never heard such nonsense, never heard such lies

I think, "Hope the belief that loved ones will never die"
I've never heard such nonsense, never heard such lies
