Song Lyrics

I am not a child, though you'll treat me as you've always seen me
You never saw the changes in a heart grown old and wise
Hey, it's good to see you smile, it's been so long between the pages
Wheels out on the highway seem to laugh between my lines

[Chorus:]
Do you still want to know?
Where does the love go when it dies?
Hey, I want you to know, love never dies,
It is sheltered here very safe inside and it's left you
With a friend out in the madness

And you say you love me still,
How your soul does change and your heart still ponders,
How I could grow fonder, of a life out on my own
I still sing the harmony
I'll have another wine and toast this madness
I'll howl at your moon, on my way home alone

[Chorus: x2]

Nanci Griffith
