Turn your to the sun You see only Look beneath the You see night
Like a homesick Luther's standin' in the the world Floating by him
Luther's hands once held a With keys to a home and a blue Now he lives with his mother, steals all her And chain smokes and stares at the ceiling for
your back to the sun You see shadows beneath the stars You see only

Like a sailor Luther's in the window Watching the Floating by him
floating by him tonight It's by him tonight It's by him tonight
