The Wind And The Wire Lyrics by Beth Carvalho in Prairieography Album.
The Wind And The Wire Lyric
God is in his eyes
Time is on his hands
The devil’s in his heart
The walls are closing in
The room is growing cold
The engine has no spark
His ears would hear the sighs
But his face can’t fell the breeze
The weight is on his mind
Can’t help but stay awake
Through the midnight hours
Thinking of her smile
The gentle whisper of the wind
Through the razor wire fence
Sounds just like the wind
Through the boughs of a tall white pine
The gavel hammers down
One man goes away
One man wears the chain
But everybody pays
A woman’s heart is strong
She’s got to carry on
She will always find her way
Tears are in her eyes
The days an endless road
The ring is on her hand
The babes are fast asleep
They can’t see their momma weep
She’s doing all she can
All the debts she’ll never pay
The words she never got to say
Before they threw away the key
He did what he felt was right
He never would have guessed
They couldn’t see it that way
Chorus
