Abilene Lyrics by Yes The Raven

Abilene

2024

[Verse 1]
In the time of the dice
Whole world in your sights
And the rights that were wronged
A time for leaving
[Verse 2]
And you know you should fold
When the light in your eye
Just sparkles with gold
How great is the darkness
[Pre-Chorus]
Abilene, Abilene
But I know now
Flowers in the spring
Abilene, Abilene
But I know you
Bullets in the morning stray
[Chorus]
This is what you know
Love-lies take you home
Love-lies take you home again
To me
This is what you owe
Love-lies take you home
Love-lies take you home again
To me
[Verse 3]
From the oaths that you swore
To the clothes that you wore
All covered in mud
And the blood of power
[Verse 4]
There were times I was right
In the dregs of the night
When I swore he would come
And mean to kill me
[Pre-Chorus]
Abilene, Abilene
But I know you
Flowers in the spring
Abilene, Abilene
But I know now
Murder in the corner waits
[Chorus]
This is what you know
Love-lies take you home
Love-lies take you home again
To me
This is all you know
Love-lies take you home
Love-lies take you home again
To me
[Verse 5]
Now the world’s in a haze
The horizon awaits
And the eyes of a girl
If the train can reach her
[Verse 6]
You can hide from the guns
You can ride on the train
But you can’t run away
From pain, the teacher
[Pre-Chorus]
Abilene, Abilene
But I know you
Flowers in the spring
Abilene, Abilene
There's no roses
Or flowers in october for the dead
[Chorus]
This is what you know
Love-lies take you home
Love-lies take you home again
To me
This what you owe
Love-lies take you home
Love-lies take you home again
To me
