lyrics

She sings with the honesty of an angel's fleeting hymn upon the tongue
Eyes like shinin' sun that climbs upon dark hills at early dawn
Mystery gypsy Jane, how quick you came, like summer rain, then gone
Left me shattered here like a broken mirror that reflects my lonesome song

Oh how sweet life can be, I've surely seen
How sweet life can be, I've surely seen
But now I stand alone again
But I believe I am still a lucky man

Now a pale light rise, through starless skies, now black that once was blue
And I, alone, in the wind that moans, 'neath a burnin' flashlight moon
Like a sheriff's aide, you interrogate, but I told you all I knew
Close and lock my cage, I'm a prison slave to the wanderin' thoughts of you

Oh how sweet life can be, I've surely seen
How sweet life can be, I've surely seen
But now I stand alone again
But I believe I am still a lucky man
