You carry your pain wherever you go All full of the blues and trying to lose You ain't gonna learn what you don't wanna know So I give you my eyes, and all of their lies Please help them to learn as well as to see Capture a glance, and make it dance Of looking at you, looking at me Black throated wind, keeps on pouring in With its words of a lie that could almost be true Ah, mother american night, here comes the light I'm turning around, that's what I'm gonna do Going back home that's what I'm gonna do
