Temporary Saint - Gov't Mule

On the banks of the deep end

Where your soul is your best friend

Searching for a reason

To go astray

Wild dreams turn to nightmares

Silver clouds turn to golden stairs

And everything that you used to know

Is slipping away

Here I’ve got my puzzle-piece

Only got it for a short term lease

No time for asking

No going back to get hurt

I take a little from the mixture

Try to fit it into the picture

Got a place where you’re standing

Dig your shoes into the dirt

Trying hard to get back

Runnin' on the stones

Put you on my shoulders

We can be the only one

See the world’s still spinning 'round

Gettin' dizzy when we look

There’s a reason to be home

There’s a feeling when you smile

But it feels like it might take over

This feeling deep inside

And there’s a distance down the line

Far away from the station

We can leave it all behind

On a rolling creation

Sit away from the window

And lock the door

Can’t you learn from the last time

And the time before

See the world’s still spinning 'round

Gettin' dizzy when we look

Got to leave town

To see the yellow flowers bloom

Sun going down

It’s gonna be rising soon

On the banks of the deep end

Twisted as a riverbend

Searching for a reason to go astray

You couldn’t hire twenty-five men

To do what the man could do

Just the sound of his walking

Could split the whole damn town in two

Into the night full of shadows

He still walks when the thunder rolls

This river ain’t shallow

Reminds us that the bell still tolls

Bears in the kitchen

Tigers on TV

The singer’s pretending

That this song’s for me

See the world’s still spinning 'round

Gettin' dizzy when we look

You took a wrong turn

Down by the waterline

I heard they had to drag you off the sand

Find a dune and the wind will miss you

Hold on to a piece of dry land

Got to hold on to a piece of dry land

Got to hold on to a piece of dry land

On the banks of the deep end

Where I lost my best friend

Searching for a reason to go astray
