If  I could have one wish right now
I'd  be about as half as tough as I pretend  I am
Then  I wouldn't care how empty this old house  feels
I  could take her things and take them far away  from here
 I could make sure no dirt ever got on her name
 Cause looking at that stone wouldn't bring me so much pain
 I could go into town wearing my finest clothes
 I could turn these tears into blood and make it run ice cold
Space  City's one  hour up the road  from me
 One hour away from  as close to the moon as anybody down here is ever gonna be
 
 And somewhere  beyond that big white light is where my heart is gone
 And somewhere she's wondering  what's taking me  so long
 My hands are as good to me as they've ever been
 And I ain't ashamed of anything my hands ever did
 But sometimes the words I used were as hard as my fist
 She had the strength of a man and the heart of a child I guess
