Tin Man
(Kito Peters)
Tin Man
out here in the parched land
a vulture’s all i see
there’s so many miles now
between myself and me
still i felt you coming
a thousand years ago
and what you’d want with a tin man baby
how could i know
out here on the mesa
sheriff cut me loose
and i would pray to any god
if it would be some use
you came searching for me
i could hear your call
echo through the canyons
but no one’s here at all baby
out here in the darkness
too late to make amends
i swear i felt you stroke my brow
so this is how it ends
yes i felt you coming
a thousand years ago
and what you’d want with a tin man baby
how could i know
