OK, I just listened to a live version I have (it's the only one I have handy at work) and here's what I transcribed. There will be differences from the album version and from every other live version, but it's consistent for the most part.
Out here when you light a smoke on the porch
You can hear the paper burning
Out Here the moon is the only light
And you can hear it turning
Out here down over the ridge there is a highway
A car comes, a car fades
It's like that out here you hear things from miles out
Miles away
Out here I make the only human light
I make the only human sound
It's my privilege to lie awake at night
And think of all I've lost
Hope for what might be found
Out here you'll find out who your friends are
When the darkness comes and kills the day
There's an ache in every corner of the heart
For the ones who are miles away
Out here there's always work to be done
Out here I do what I can
It came down to a choice, love or run
I ran
Winter will get ahold of me and I will long for your touch
I will wonder what a fool am I
Why'd I leave it if I loved it so much
I will call you, I will struggle for the words to say
I will swear I'm working on what keeps me miles away
Out here it's not as bad as I tell it
There are rocks and there are rivers and there are trees
Nothing comes easy, what comes has brought at last a little peace
Out here it's so silent you might hear your heart talking
One day that heart might tell you which way to go
Start walking
Know that I will (repeat a lot)
Out here when you light a smoke on the porch
You can hear the paper burning
The moon is the only light
I hear it turning
