Nanci Griffith - The Last Of The True Believers lyrics

Oh, he said it was the
Sound of the winter callin'
From up around the bend
Or it could be the cry of your restless heart
For the love of your long lost friends
Me, I think it's just the summertime and
The heat of these Texas winds
They keep on slappin' my face
With dust so thick
That the tears won't roll again

Last of the true believers
Have you grown weary all alone?
You could go home againhome againhome
Last of the true believers
You pack your things and go back home
You could go home againhome againhome

Oh he said, "you can't stay away forever
'cause they say love doesn't last that long
And the ghost of the one that you loved
The best is bound to be long gone
So you fall for the one you believe in
And take pride in the heart you hold
'Cause when the wintertime pounds
Upon your door it's shelter from the cold"

Last of the true believers
Have you grown weary all alone?
You could go home againhome againhome
Last of the true believers
You pack your things and go back home
You could go home againhome againhome

There's a shadow on our wall where I
Once stood with him in mind
And there is an empty space beside him
Where I do take my rest at night
Oh, I will be the last of the true
Believers if truth is his heart to lend
'Cause the wintertime sure looks cold to
Me comin' up around the bend

Last of the true believers
Have you grown weary all alone?
You could go home againhome againhome
Last of the true believers
You pack your things and go back home
You could go home againhome againhome

Oh, I could go home again home again home
Well, it looks like home
Again home again home
Oh, I could go home again home again home
Well, he brings me home again home again home
