Endless Wire, ©1978 by Gordon Lightfoot
                                      
I ain't got nothing to hide
My mind is an endless wire
I got both feet on the ground
I ain't got no one for hire
I ain't got a thing to show
My lives have all expired
So don't go fooling around
And set my wheels afire
                                        
Down in the dark of a burnt out soul
There's a few good second hand dreams
Deep in the dark of a heavenly night with you
Down in the black of a bottomless hole
There's a few good second hand scenes
Deep in the dark of a heavenly blue
Where the sea runs green 
                                        
I ain't got nothing to give
My life is an endless climb
My love's a paperback dream
I don't have nothing but time
I ain't got a thing to show
I don't know my own name
So don't go fooling around
And set my wheels aflame
                                        
Down in the dark of a beat out soul
There's a few good second hand dreams
Deep in the dark of a heavenly night with you
Down in the black of a bottomless hole
There's a few good second hand saves
Deep in the dark of a heavenly blue
Where the sea runs green
                                        
I ain't got nothing to hide
My mind is an endless wire
I got both feet on the ground
I don't have no one for hire
I ain't got a thing to show
My life is an endless climb
My love's a paperback dream
I ain't got nothing but time
