On The Western Skyline lyrics Lyrics

song lyrics On The Western Skyline lyrics B. R. Hornsby/John Hornsby About this time of evening, out by the bay They turn the roadlights on the bridge A diesel rolls in silhouette, eastbound Lovers glad the sun has set I m staring into the twilight Wishing I could find someone tonight I know she s out there somewhere On the western skyline Lonely women say a prayer On the western skyline The rooftops sag on second street Bachelor s quarters, too much fun, not enough fun The kite s still hanging on the wire Waiting on the wind Too many dreams, not enough hope Voices on my radio Telling me where I should go I know she s out there somewhere On the western skyline Lonely women say a prayer On the western skyline They ll set up on the bandstand When the sailors hear the whistle blow Underneath the streetlight Violence in the afterglow Give me a shiny Cadillac Close your eyes past that city limits sign He s got the admiral s daughter in the back Trying to cross her battle line As I m staring into the twilight Wishing I could be with her tonight I know she s out there somewhere On the western skyline Lonely women say a prayer On the western skyline song lyrics
