Lyrics

Over Council Bluffs the sky turned gray As a van began to sway With a crosswind so strong And a phone call gone so wrong There's some static in the words you say A terse reply and you seem to drop away Misunderstanding, communicative theft Not at all unlike the night before I left Now there's a sadness in Des Moines And I hope it blows out with the storm There's two sides to every coin Still there's a sadness in Des Moines Blew it last night in Nebraska The crowd was dead and the night was slow All liquored up in Lincoln I was gone 'bout halfway through the show Whoa, with a pounding in my head Some do need to retrace every word you said To revise and to re-relate To reach out and shake you and set the record straight Now there's a sadness in Des Moines And I hope it blows out with the storm There's two sides to every coin Still there's a sadness in Des Moines What a fool I was to entrust Words so critical to say To a wireless phone call From eight hundred miles away Now there's a sadness in Des Moines And I hope it blows out with the storm There's two sides to every coin Still there's a sadness in Des Moines Can you hear me now? Can you hear me now? Can you hear me now? Can you hear me now? Can you hear me now? Can you hear me now? Can you hear me now? Can you hear me now? Can you hear me now? Can you hear me now? There's two sides to every coin There's two sides to every coin There's two sides to every coin Still there's a sadness in Des Moines
