Zevon Warren - Bed Of Coals lyrics

Nazareth

Sad to be alone

Your only comfort is the telephone

Homesick again

Thoughts of far away

Silence is the only way to say

Ain't it a shame

What's goin' down, she don't understand

Can't you be with her every night

Why must it be, you're away so long

But she plays along, and it's alright

People all around

You don't see or hear them make a sound

It's not the same

What's goin' down, she don't understand

Can't you be with her every night

Why must it be, you're away so long

But she plays along, and it's alright

Countin' out the days

That don't help to ease the days away

The price you pay

Homesick again
