Lyrics

V1:
like a record revolves beneath the weight of the needle
like the calm chords resolve with a strength all their own
there's a sound in the dark, there's a bird in the hollow
calling me round the bend, where there's no way to know

So I step out again, sweet abandon
I breathe in the air of the free and the damned
you can't put a price on the feeling of standing
at the edge of your little world, where your luck meets the land
ooooh

V2:
From the towering walls of sierra nevada
to the colors of fall in my Tennessee home
some are searching in vain at the back of a theater
in the front row of a church pew still there's no way to know

So I step out again, sweet abandon
I breathe in the air of the free and the damned
you can't put a price on the feeling of standing
at the edge of your little world, where your luck meets the land

Instrumental

Oh she waltzes again, sweet abandon
I breathe in the air of the free and the damned
from the peaks to the plains, echoing through the canyons
at the edge of your little world, where your luck meets the land
oooh
