Your Name on a Grain of Rice
I see the sun settin' over AmericaI'm tryin' to leave my darker side behindFeelin' my way down a blue desert highwayWish my rear view mirror could tell me a lieThe harder I fight the stronger it's a comin'I wipe the tears from my eyesAnd keep on strummin'Baby, I ain't runnin' awayI'm tryin' to find you something better inside meAnd now my second home is a third world cantinaI spend years alone in the days I can't see youAnd to me the sunset sinkin' in the seaLooks like my own bleedin' corazonThere's a man comin' over hereSellin' silver and souvenirsAnd I will pay full priceFor your name on a grain of riceI am a father, a son and a restless spiritI can see the light but I can never get near itWhat good is my love songIf you ain't around to hear itLetras de cancionesI see the fighter planes tearing' across the desert skyDo I curse them or cheer them on?I still can't decide....But the silence they leave behindSounds like what I feel inside...And now my second home is a third world cantinaI spend years alone in the days I can't see youAnd to me the sunset sinkin' in the seaLooks like my own bleedin' corazonThere's a man comin' over hereSellin' silver and souvenirsAnd I will pay full priceFor your name on a grain of rice
