There must be something in the signs we're reading |
|
There must be something in the story of our history |
|
When will you start to take the time you're needing? |
|
When will I start to heed the lessons of my history? |
|
Well, I saw it coming |
|
Them knocking down the windows when all that you wanted was someone to wake you in the morning |
|
Do you still wear the robes of all the dreams you wove or do you cast them aside when you're through? |
|
I've been waiting for the answer |
|
I slept in the shadow of your father |
|
I saw his work and I don't want his history |
|
Well you sought the counsel of your mother |
|
You heard her stories and you saw your history |
|
And she still remembers |
|
Them knocking down the windows when all that she wanted was someone to hold her when the night came |
|
Does she still wear the robes of all the dreams she wove or does she cast them aside when she's through? |
|
I've been waiting for the answer |
