Midnight Mile - Terry Callier

Like a ship without the ocean

Like a road without a wheel

Like a sun without the morning

People, that’s the way I feel

But I’ll be going home in style

Traveling one more midnight mile, yeah

I want a cold home or county

Where man must walk alone

That was the home of Muddy Waters

And they called him Daddy Rolling Stone, yeah

They said the road is such a trial

Traveling one more midnight mile, yeah

Now heaven help the people

Who’s scufflin' day by day

All they need is to find a hero

Who can help show them the way

And maybe he’ll be here after awhile

Traveling one more midnight mile

I looked into the heart of darkness

The reflection burnt my soul

I had to try to find a healer

And her love has made me whole

She had me crying like a child

Traveling one more midnight mile, yeah
