I left my heart out in the country
on her own quiet mile
I think she's on her way
but she said she'd be a while
Now I'm singin' in some city
ain't sure who I'm singin' for
I'm just a lost songbird
caught in a green eyed storm
And there ain't no easy way to leave the eye of a storm
save singin' right on through the wind and rain
I don't mind anybody knowin'
I never had a heart of gold
but my mama said I had
a silver linin' in my soul
I keep my old fire burnin'
'cause it gets so Goddamn cold
to fall asleep holdin'
just anything I'm told
And there ain't no easy way to leave the eye of a storm
save singin' right on through the wind and rain
I've got a shadow on my shoulder
at my back, a jealous wind
I've gotta kneel and kiss the ground
just to remember who I am
I'll keep on singin' in some city
but they ain't who I'm singin' for
I'm just a lost songbird
caught in a green eyed storm
And there ain't no easy way to leave the eye of a storm
save singin' right on through the wind and rain
No there ain't no easy way to leave the eye of a storm
save singin' right on through the wind and rain
save singin' right on through the wind and rain
