There's a colour that the sunset brings
A girl down at the Bluebird sings
Things that make me think of you
We got cowboys dressed in Prada
You and me we were working harder
To make a simple dollar, to get through
You always wore those boots of cherry red
Up there dancing for the suits and for the dead
We'll make it through that's what you said
So much I knew, so much unsaid

Walking through the valley
Of the shadow of Nashville
Just like angels of the night we got our
Hands in our pockets boys
Feathers in our bonnets
We're the searchers, just looking for the light
Walking through the valley
Of the shadow of Nashville
You and I

Days and lovers come and go
Just like melted footprints in the snow
Ran out of places you could hide
There's streets out to the east of here where
Fifty dollars kills the fear
Part of you just up and died
All of the songs that you would cry to
All the men that you would lie to
Always the ones that you would fly to
They'd show you how but never why

Walking through the valley
Of the shadow of Nashville
Just like angels of the night we got our
Hands in our pockets boys
Feathers in our bonnets
We're the searchers, just looking for the light
Walking through the valley
Of the shadow of Nashville
You and I

They got icons they got bygones, old men still talk of Saigon
In the bars and in the diners on the strip
I hear every word you're saying
When they're not drunk they're busy praying
You finally found a place where you could fit

You with your heart so full of certainty
Me with only doubt to set me free
There's a bar not far from here
Where they serve whiskey distilled from tears

Walking through the valley
Of the shadow of Nashville
Just like angels of the night we got our
Hands in our pockets boys
Feathers in our bonnets
We're the searchers, just looking for the light
Walking through the valley
Of the shadow of Nashville
You and I
