Jim White - Static on the RadioLyrics

Three A.M. I'm awakened By a sweet summer rain Distant howling of a passing Southbound coal train Was I dreaming Or was there someone just lying here Beside me in this bed? Am I hearing things? Or in the next room Did a long forgotten music box just start playing? And I know (it's a sin putting words in the mouths of the dead) And I know (it's a crime to weave your wishes into what they said) And I know (only fools venture where them spirits tread) Cause I know (every word, every sound bouncing 'round my head) Is just static on the radio (Everything I think I know is just static on the radio) Now there's a church house About a stone's throw down From this place where I been staying It's Sunday morning And I'm sittin' in my truck Listening to my neighbor sing Ten years ago I might have joined in But don't time change those inclined To think less of what is written Than what's wrote between the lines? Cause I know (dreams are for those who are asleep in bed) And I know (it's a sin putting words in the mouths of the dead) Cause I know (for all my ruminations I can't change a thing Still I hope (there's others out there who are listening) To the static on the radio (Everything I think I know is just static on the radio Static on the radio (Ain't praying for miracles, I'm just down on my knees) Static on the radio (Listening for the song behind everything I think I know) Static on the radio (Everything I think I know is just static on the radio)
