All around me the shadows of women and men
They all walk right through me and I walk through them
And I cast my mind back and I cannot believe that I’m
One of the lucky ones you happened to see
See me through
I got trouble on the Mainline
See me through
‘Til the scales fall from my eyes
See me through
Darlin’, darlin’, darlin’
Where are the statues, colossal and bronze
That stood at the gates of our great love and kept watch
And now over the hills, over the horizons somebody’s army advances
I had faith in you darlin,’ even when I questioned our chances
See me through
I got trouble on the Mainline
See me through
‘Til the scales fall from my eyes
See me through
Darlin’, darlin’, darlin’
I woke up this evening so lonesome and torn
In the blackberry blackness bitter-sweetness and thorns
And I cast my mind back on the love that we made and I need to believe that
There’s some kind of plan with all of this pain it’s getting harder to see it
See me through
I got trouble on the Mainline
See me through
‘Til the scales fall from my eyes
See me through
Darlin’, darlin’, darlin’
