He wakes up as evening fades to night To the chiming of an ice cream van that hides Out there in the dark And sound echoes through the empty park He’s lost far from home His body’s feeling beat up and abused His whiskey his luck, they all got And then the phone rings And he hears the angel sing Please won’t you come home?
And time seems to pass him by Ravens all calling from sky And God takes his vengeance slow Maybe that’s way the story goes? Is that just how you feel when you get old?
He’s searching for the answer Then God turned up one morning with a prayer And he said you're mine Just have one more of wine And then I’m taking you home And wind whispers secrets cold From the of the empty midnight den(??) They shine under silver moons And while he’s sleeping in your bed Home’s not just a place to lay your head
