Lyrics
you were dead when they found you on the floor of your apartment you were dead, and your drum set stood there shining in the dark shining like stage lights shining like your eyes shining like orion in the night you were small time back in austin where the drummers are all poor you were rocking out this dive bar there were bottles on the floor and a couple lonely people and the bartender and i remembered what it is to be alive chorus hey, orion, he's falling catch him if you can hey, orion, he's calling amen, amen, amen were you dreaming of the big time when you fell down all alone? could you see the velvet curtain and the silver microphone? could you hear your own heart beating? did you hear it getting slow? could you hear your own heart playing rock & roll? chorus gram parsons in a hotel buddy holly on a plane and you, in your apartment with your drum set shining shining like stage lights shining like your eyes shining like orion in the night chorus
