Hard Times in Babylon - Eliza Gilkyson

I light a candle in your name

Long past midnight, memories bright in the freeze frame

And I’m asking myself why

I see at the Marriott, funny little grin

Driving those drums like a chariot

Did it hurt too much to try?

Woody you were my hero

A shoulder to cry on when I bottomed out at zero

In the hour of the wolf, just before the dawn

Hard times in Babylon

O.K.

so you had to go

Take a walk on the wild side

Down to the valley of the shadow

But it just don’t seem like you

Well you could have called out

There’s not a man or woman gathered tonight in the big house

Wouldn’t run to pull you through

An incident so grievous

20 years ago you would have thought this is the way you would leave us

In the hour of the wolf, just before the dawn

Hard times in Babylon

Got to hang together when the air’s this thin

Hand out the masks for the oxygen

Live for something

We’re coming upon a time in our lives

When the little dreams live but the big dream dies

Not for nothing, Not for nothing

I know that love don’t end

Nothing I can do is gonna bring you back or let me see you again

In the hour of the wolf, just before the dawn

Hard times in Babylon

In the hour of the wolf, just before the dawn

Hard times in Babylon
