Reservoir Lyrics - Hem

(Steve Curtis) 

Late last night, I missed my train 

I walked back to the car and drove home again 

Just outside of Pittsburgh, it's really not that far 

Saw a light come shining 'cross the reservoir 

The sun in California, it drops right into the sea 

I took a couple pictures, they don't mean that much to me 

Just outside of Pittsburgh, I saw it from my car 

The light shines to the bottom of the reservoir 

Starless night, come fall around me 

Over all we've left undone 

I know a light that shines forever 

Howsoever we may run 

The moon hung on the hillside in eastern Tennessee 

With rows of honeysuckle blooming over me 

But the iron hills of Pittsburgh where all my memories are 

Gathering the light around the reservoir 

Starless night, come fall around me 

Over all we've left undone 

I know a light that shines forever 

Howsoever we may run
