"Saint Of Circumstance" lyrics

"Saint Of Circumstance"

This must be heaven
Tonight I crossed the line
You must be the angel
I thought I might never find
Was it you I heard singin'
Oh while I was chasin' dreams?
Driven by the wind
Like the dust that blows around

And the rain fallin' down
But I never know
(Sure don't know)
Never know
Never know
(Sure don't know)

This must be heaven
'Cause here's where the rainbow ends
At last it's the real thing
Or close enough to pretend
When that wind blows
When the night's about to fall
I can hear the sirens call
It's a certain sort of sound

In the rain fallin' down
Rain fallin' down
Rain fallin' down
Rain fallin' down
Rain fallin' down

Holes in what's left of my reason
Holes in the knees of my blues
Odds against me been increasin'
But I'll pull through

Never could read no road map
And I don't know what the weather might do
But hear that witch wind whinin'
See that dog star shinin'
I've got a feelin' there's no time to lose
No time to lose!

Maybe goin' on a feelin' maybe goin' on
A dream

Well I never know
(Sure don't know)
Never know
Never know
(Sure don't know)

Well it's been heaven
But even rainbows end
Now my sails are fillin'
And the wind's so willin'
That I'm as good as gone again
I'm still walkin', so I'm sure that I can dance
Just a Saint of Circumstance
Just a tiger in a trance
In the rain fallin' down

Rain falling down
Rain falling down
Rain falling down
Rain falling down

Well I never know, just don't know (just don't know)
Sure don't know what I'm going for (sure don't know)
But I'm going to go for it for sure, yeah for sure, yeah for sure
Sure don't know what I'm going for, just don't never know, never never know
But I'm going to go for it for sure. No no no, that's for sure, yeah for sure
Sure don't know what I'm going for. Just don't never never know, no no
But I'm going to go for it for sure, that's for sure
Sure don't know what I'm going for. Yeah maybe going on a dream, going on a dream now
But I'm going to go for it for sure. Maybe going on a feeling, maybe going on a feeling. Maybe going on a feeling
