Steve Poltz - Salvation Song Lyrics

Neon lights outside my pool hall
Rain is comin' down in spoon fulls
Mixes in with tears from my eyes
I've been standin' here for hours

Paper bag for my umbrella
Won't you come back to your soggy fella?
Watchin' people passin' by me
I got nowhere else to go

And I know, you could be miles from me
Just a sailin' through these flooded streets
I wash the sin right off my skin
And you will have me back again

Diesel bus fumes got me chokin'
Police man standin' above me pokin'
Wake up from my sidewalk Hilton
I got nowhere else to go

Neon sport coat gets me groovin'
Your long gone daddy is slowly movin'
A wrinkled picture in my wallet
I could stare at you for hours

And I know, you could be miles from me
Just a sailin' through these flooded streets
I wash the sin right off my skin
And you will have me back again

And I'll be floatin' up to heaven
With dice in my hands rollin' sevens
Lost in your arms
And salvation will be ours

Neon lights outside my pool hall
Rain is comin' down in spoon fulls
Mixes in with tears from my eyes
I've been standin' here for hours
