Strays Songtext
in the summer of my wedding
as the corn burned in the field
oh, I lay down for my baby
and let the sweet smoke stain my heels

well, I lay there 'til the midnight
when the dogs, they run through town
and I rose up just to listen
and I never lay back down
then the morning, it came upon me
and I set my soul to search
from the tall grass down the main road
to the stained glass at the church

lord my shepard help me pray
though I left my heart to stray
though I left my heart untrue
I can follow
I do
I do

and I can name them in my dreaming
I can set my soul to rest
I can chain them to my body
let them settle at my breast

now see them coming to my wedding
where I will teach them not to stray
oh, they'll carry my salvation
oh, they'll carry me away...
