Lyrics Hayes Carll

Hayes Carll

Hide Me

After all these years of runnin' 'round

Of flying high and falling down

Well, the time has come at last

To rest my heart and ease my past

I'm gonna leave these blues behind

For some other fool to find

He don't care and I won't mind

Hide me, babe, hide me, babe

Darlin' don't you cry tonight

The moon is full and the world is right

I've loved more than my share

I took the pain and called it fair

So I'm gonna lay down all my fears

My highway shoes and my ramblin' tears

They can shout it down the line

I can't lose what was not mine

I'll raise my glass and I'll make a toast

Better than some, little harder than most

Left a mark on every town

Chased our dreams and stood our ground

But I cannot do those things no more

Not the way I've done before

The same wings that brought me through

Can send me back the same way too

After all these years of runnin' round

Flyin' high and fallin' down

Well, the time has come at last

To rest my heart and ease my past

I'm gonna leave these blues behind

For some other fool to find

He don't care and I won't mind

Hide me, babe, hide me, babe
