Superstition Springs
Come on down to Superstition Springs
where the hills are flat
and the caged bird sings
Where the water is bitter
and the tide is high
Love is long gone
and so was I
Come on down to Superstition Springs
Where sweet honey in the rock
is a sign of bigger things
Where sulphur bubbles madly
and babies get burned
Where memories really haunt you
and the tables never turn
Come on down to Superstition Springs
Bend low and drink
cast off your wedding rings
Because the air hurts to breathe
and everything's a lie
The truth will out
lo bye and bye
Come on down to Superstition Springs
Where tears form a mask
so blinding tight it clings
Where salt stone slices flesh
all shimmering and white
Where tenderness is lost
and darkness eats the light
Come on down to Superstition Springs
Bathe your body in the pain
let your spirit find its wings
May the bitterness of sorrow
release you and and you'll see
Lie down beneath the river
let your heart there wander free
Come on down to Superstition Springs
Where redemption may be found
in the smallness of things
Where salvation beyond hope
and thought beyond reason
are a teaspoon's measure
'gainst the turning of the season
Come on down to Superstition Springs
Where the hills rise deep
and the air hotly sings
Where the water darkens sweet
and the tide calls you friend
Empty is the river
and peaceful is the end.
