I Will Find You

well hello mary blue, there's a look of dismay 'bout you
with your violet eyes and violent temper
you'll never know just what i meant, oh no
 
so i drove long and i drove far
asleep behind the wheel of a stolen car
'cross the width of this brown land
just trying to find an answer to the question at hand
there are songs yet to be sung, sister whereforartthou?
there are races yet to run
out on the road i was told the day would come
when i will find you
 
on a day of violent storms my own conversation forms
and it's hard to be sane and stable, not stupid but smart
healthy and hale and no hollow heart
i am dry inside
 
'twas in the church of my own making
i married me a wife, hey i was mistaken
when i thought it was time
still i'm looking for someone to escape to, i'd have to ask me why i would avoid you
it seems you have the answer
 
so i drove long and i drove far
asleep behind the wheel of a stolen car
'cross the width of this brown land
just trying to find an answer to the question at hand
there are songs yet to be sung,
sister whereforartthou? there are races yet to run
out on the road i was told the day would come
when I would find you
