phoenix (the amazing flight of a lone star)

dance the blues

see how she dances

to bring us the news

see how she dances

ashes and news

see how she dances

rise from the blues

the amazing flight of a lone star

just like heaven and hell reaches so very far

wrapped up in pages of yesterday's news

sings with the devil and dances the blues

in her red dress

she dances the blues

races the dawn to bring us the news

now that i'm here

i'll tell you the news

come on

sing the news

we've all got to go like we've come

before or after the sun

a single string guitar

plays the amazing flight of a lone star

see how she dances

ashes and news

you were tired of waiting in the shadows

hiding thoughts of new ways in old mason jars

sweet on the edges but much more inside

running in races

never using the prize

now open your eyes and

dance the blues

now that i'm here i'll tell you the news

come on

sing the news

we've all got to go like we've come

before or after the sun

and if you believe in the one

you'd be living the one life god's given

we've all got to go like we've come

before or after the sun

a single string guitar

plays the amazing flight of a lone star

then phoenix

then phoenix.
