Black Sky Testo

Dave Alvin
(Blue Horn Toad Music, BMI)

Baby black sky
Black sky is all I see

Yeah baby black sky
Black sky is all I see
Please stand beside me baby
Shine your light for me.

Well I been all around the world
Ain't nothin' I ain't seen
From the Mekong River to the
San Joaquin
I made it down to Helena
But it's just a ghost town
And I got to Jackson
But they tore old Jackson down.

Yeah I been around the world
Black sky is all I see
Why don't you stand beside me baby
Shine your light for me.

Baby well I went to the graveyard
To see my friend one last time
People gathered â❬˝round
Some were prayin, some were cryin'
They were talkin' about heaven
And the final judgement day
But all I could do was say goodbye to him
Turn and walk away.

Yeah I went to the graveyard
But black sky was all I seen
Please stand beside me baby
Shine your light for me.

I wake up every mornin'
Try the best I can
To make it one more day
In a world I don't understand
Now the sun baby's shinin'
But there's darkness on the land
And I can't find my way baby
Unless you take my hand.

Yeah I, I wake up every mornin' baby
Black sky is all I see
Please stand beside me baby
Shine your light for me.

Yeah black sky
Black sky is all I see
Please shine your light pretty baby
Take this black sky away from me.
