there was a black heart beatin' in a cowboy's chest when the sun it took him through and the tracks were tears on a cigarette when the sky had opened up again looked like midnight, it was noon a true love will leave you on your knees in the rain a true love will leave you in the rain a true love will leave you on your knees in the rain a true love will leave you in the rain there was a blackbird sitting on top of a wire and the cold winter sky turned gray when the saints become the beggars and they live down among the fray and a dream of a cold new day there was a man on fire in the back of the church he speaks in a sorry tone not because his lover died she left him all alone to sing to the holy stone a true love will leave you on your knees in the rain a true love will leave you in the rain a true love will leave you on your knees in the rain Songtextea true love will leave you in the rain i've been breaking down these old homes i've been waiting for the people to pray does your house look like a home when it's sliding on into the lake and when the darkness falls will you be riding that southbound train and cut your coal to burn and fill your heart with flames a true love will leave you on your knees in the rain a true love will leave you in the rain a true love will leave you on your knees in the rain a true love will leave you in the rain there was a black heart beatin' in a cowboy's chest if he even had a heart at all his mother died when he was born his daddy in a coal mine fall his blood on the coal mine wall Aus Songtexte Mania
