lyrics

11. Sandbag Lane

She didn’t need a weatherman, she didn’t need a vane
She was prepared for disaster, but when it came
It was the wrong disaster, it didn’t have a name
It came out of nowhere down on Sandbag Lane…

On Sandbag Lane on a moonless night
The darkness gathered ‘round a pale street light
And from the shadows someone sang
Sounding like the wind through a canyon of pain
The wind whistled through a canyon of pain
And it sounded so sweet on Sandbag Lane

On Sandbag Lane
Seven times you stumble, eight times get up again

She threw her duffel in the trunk of her car
And pointed that wagon at the northern star
She didn’t take a map didn’t stop to tie her shoes
She couldn’t get lost she had nothing to lose

On a blue highway where the traffic was light
With no signs to stop her she might take flight
But with a lover named Chance she had nothing to gain
She knew she’d end up back on Sandbag Lane

On Sandbag Lane, on Sandbag Lane
Seven times you stumble, eight times you’re up again
Life will send a message, nine times out of ten
Its eleven times you stumble, twelve times - get up again
