Tomorrow’s down the line
My hands sit by the sea
My mind can’t make it move
Nothing touches me
Morning’s out of reach
From the frozen sleep
I wanna be a child
Nothing touches me
I know it’s been so long
Too long to say a while
You must think I lost my
I think you’re probably right
I ride the evening sun
And pour the wine dark sky
The earth is blood and rough
Swims into the tide
If I could think of the wind of days
And figure a clever week
I’d tie it to my soul
Nothing touches me
I cannot say so long
It’s just hung up too dry
I eat my hours up
Too heavy to fly
Tomorrow’s down the line
My hands sit by the sea
My mind can’t make it move
Nothing touches me
My hands sit by the sea
My mind can’t make it move
Nothing touches me
Morning’s out of reach
From the frozen sleep
I wanna be a child
Nothing touches me
I know it’s been so long
Too long to say a while
You must think I lost my
I think you’re probably right
I ride the evening sun
And pour the wine dark sky
The earth is blood and rough
Swims into the tide
If I could think of the wind of days
And figure a clever week
I’d tie it to my soul
Nothing touches me
I cannot say so long
It’s just hung up too dry
I eat my hours up
Too heavy to fly
Tomorrow’s down the line
My hands sit by the sea
My mind can’t make it move
Nothing touches me

THOUGHT THIS WAS A JUSTIN TOWNES ERLE TUNE I HAD NOT HEARD BEFORE. EVEN LOOKS A LITTLE LIKE HIM. HOPE FOR A LONGER AND HAPPIER MUSICAL JOURNEY FOR SAM. RIP JUSTIN
Artful. Soothing.
This one has grown on me... I really needed to be in the right mood to receive it, like many other tunes. Each has a time and place in my heart and brain space, eventually.
I like it. He almost has a little early Willie Nelson twang to his vocals. I had never heard of him. Thanks AGAIN RP for new things to my ears. I have such an everyday expanding like of different new music thanks to this amazing vessel! ![clap](https://img.radioparadise.com/emoji/eusa_clap.gif)

something very sad about the music and the lyrics don't contradict this...
Loving all the new music, Bill and loving this track!
I thought this was Roy Orbison. Had to check.
Kacey Johansing on backing vocals. I came across her album from last year, Year Way, which I enjoyed. Would be cool to see a song or two from her added to the rotation.

Nice. Reminds me of lots of other songs, the specifics of which aren't important right now.
This is as if from another time... But not any in particular that has actually existed.

Very nice duet
Yuk.
