Lyrics
______________________________________________________________________
and chills me to the bone
the moonlight falls in all her glory
but it's no good alone
the candle burns away so slowly
and just takes away the time
I'm too young to be this lonely
I should be feelin' fine
goin' back home to the Sweetwood
on my way back home
to see you if I could just see your eyes
then the sun would rise again for me
(pedal steel solo)
the storm beats hard against my doorway
and the cold winds moan
I played my cards, gonna head back your way
or be sinkin' like a stone
goin' back home to the Sweetwood
on my way back home
to see you if I could just see your eyes
then the sun would rise again for me
goin' back home to the Sweetwood
on my way back home
to see you if I could just see your eyes
then the sun would rise again for me
