Lyrics
Lately he can feel it
Turn off inside his heart
She's calling in from her carphone
And she's falling apart
He can call in her prescription
He will take it down from the shelf
But he knows that he can't save her
From herself no more
Well you can ride on in the country doctor
And you might do the best that you can
But who is gonna help the medicine man?
Who is gonna save him?
He always was a healer
There was something in his eyes
Had his hand upon your head
When the fever started to rise
Someone he lost long ago
Now there's flowers upon a grave
And they say that it's still her
He's trying to save, he's trying to save her
You can ride on in the country doctor
You might do the best that you can
But who is gonna help the medicine man?
Who is gonna save the medicine man?
Who is gonna save him?
Later on in the evening
When the sun goes sinking down
He goes out for a walk
Along the sound
And he thinks that he can hear her
Calling in the wind
But he tells her that he must wait
Another day
