Dave Alvin link of chain

Can't you see? I can't explain
I'm a little like a link of chain
Just a ring around another
Runnin' in and out again
Fly me on a kite line
Smilin' like a gold mine
I don't need to do right
Go to the end
That'll do to hold me tonight
Mornin' rain, make it soon
Just a little in the afternoon
To hold me like a mother
Hang me on the evenin' moon
Set me on a low one
Show me how to go one
More whenever I finally decide
Go to the end
And take it along for the ride
Well I ain't got long
I leave 'fore day
And I never had a lot to say
Tell me like a brother
Do we throw it all away
Sittin' on the side line
Foolin' with a fine mind
Never need to know the desire
Go to the end
Play it right down to the wire
Go to the end
Play it right down to the wire
Can't you see? I can't explain
I'm a little like a link of chain
Just a ring around another
Runnin' in and out again
Runnin' in and out again
Runnin' in and out again
