lyrics plain jane/ music evil eddy
This song was inspired by
an old indian legend about
a maiden waiting for her warrior to come home. As
she waits by the ledge of the canyon she receives news of his death and throws herself over the cliff.Legend has it you can hear her laments and wailings on certain evenings..P. Jane
*************************
musically I wanted to create a meloncholy
mood with a downhome heartwrenching vibe.
E.E.
Long Way Home
It’s a long way home
On the open road
To the shady grave
Past lovers lane
I am dreaming
I am seeing
My darling leaps for me
My darling leaps for me
When the sun goes down
Past the speed of sound
The dust drives me home
Down the open road
Past the canyon of sorrow
Where lovers go
It’s a long way home
To the shady grave
The long black hearse
The long pine box
The red red dirt
The yellow rose
My darling I will always love you
Forever and beyond ever
