I can't get off this road that I'm on
I made a promise and the witness was the dawn
I took all of my weariness and I put it into song
and you can find it in my eyes
but they are just lovesongs in disguise
I took that train and I headed west
I took my jacket and I removed the family crest
well, I was just lookin' for a place to take my rest
when that babe who woke me with her cries
learned that she was just a lovesong in disguise
oh, oh, oh...
I saw a raven flying low
straight through the rain to a destiny unknown
and I wished to follow wherever he did go
but that bird in those thunderstorming skies
well, he was just a lovesong in disguise
I sat and I wondered where you are
Maybe you were in St. Louis
or maybe in the dining car
or maybe you were in the shimmer
of that single evening star
and then I came to realize
that you, my babe, are just a lovesong in disguise
oh, oh, oh...
Now I'm sitting all alone in here
and I'm callin' out to the ghosts that might be near
and I'm asking all of them nicely
to please not mind my tears
to look kindly on my whimpers and my sighs
'cause I am just a lovesong in disguise
I am just a lovesong in disguise
just a lovesong in disguise
