Rhythm of my heart

Across the street the river runs.

Down in the gutter life is slipping away.

Let me still exist in another place,

Running down under cover

Of a helicopter blade.

No never will I roam,

for I know my place is home.

Where the ocean meets the sky,

I'll be sailing.

Love may still alive,

somewhere someday,

where they're downing only deer

a hundred steel towns away.
