Kris McKay - Tear-Stained Eye

To Rate
Verse 1
Walking down Main Street
Getting to know the concrete
Looking for a purpose in a neon sign
But I would meet you anywhere
The western sun meets the air
Well, I'll hit the road, never look behind

Chorus
Can you deny there's nothing greater?
Nothing more than the traveling hands of time?
Saint Genevieve can hold back the water
But saints don't bother with a tear-stained eye

Verse 2
Seeing traces
Of the stars that came before
Hitting thе pavement still asking for more
Now whеn the hours don't move along
Worn-out wood and familiar songs
To hear your voice is not enough, it's more than a shame

Chorus
Can you deny there's nothing greater?
Nothing more than the traveling hands of time?
Saint Genevieve can hold back the water
But saints don't bother with a tear-stained eye
Guitar Solo

Verse 3
Like the man said
Rode hard and threw away wet
Throw away the bad news and put it to rest
If learning is living
And the truth is a state of mind
Well, you'll find it better at the end of the line

Chorus
Can you deny there's nothing greater?
Nothing more than the traveling hands of time?
Saint Genevieve can hold back the water
But saints don't bother with a tear-stained eye

Outro
Saint Genevieve can hold back the water
Saints don't bother with a tear-stained eye
