| [00:29.81] |
You fold his hands and smooth his tie |
| [00:32.55] |
You gently lift his chin |
| [00:35.20] |
Were you really so blind |
| [00:38.09] |
And unkind to him? |
| [00:40.92] |
Can't help the itch to touch, to kiss |
| [00:43.27] |
To hold him once again |
| [00:46.36] |
Now to close his eyes |
| [00:49.25] |
Never open them |
| [00:52.29] |
A shadow past, a shadow past |
| [00:55.29] |
Yearning, yearning for the fool |
| [01:00.67] |
It called a home |
| [01:06.45] |
All things he never did |
| [01:12.23] |
Are left behind |
| [01:16.62] |
All the things his mama |
| [01:20.75] |
Wished he'd bear in mind |
| [01:23.49] |
And all his dad had hoped he'd know |
| [01:28.87] |
|
| [01:34.46] |
The talks you never had |
| [01:36.61] |
The Saturdays you never spent |
| [01:39.80] |
All the grown-up places |
| [01:43.69] |
You never went |
| [01:46.08] |
And all of the crying |
| [01:48.17] |
You wouldn't understand |
| [01:50.95] |
You just let him cry |
| [01:53.85] |
Make a man out of him |
| [01:57.53] |
A shadow past, a shadow past |
| [01:59.87] |
Yearning, yearning for the fool |
| [02:05.36] |
It called a home |
| [02:11.14] |
All things he ever wished |
| [02:17.16] |
Are left behind |
| [02:21.75] |
All the things his mama |
| [02:25.98] |
Did to make him mind |
| [02:28.77] |
And how his dad had hoped he'd grow |
| [02:34.33] |
All things he ever lived |
| [02:39.85] |
Are left behind |
| [02:44.19] |
All the fears that ever |
| [02:48.28] |
Flickered through his mind |
| [02:51.07] |
All the sadness that |
| [02:54.16] |
He'd come to own |
| [02:56.80] |
|
| [03:13.74] |
A shadow past, a shadow past |
| [03:16.99] |
Yearning, yearning for the fool |
| [03:21.97] |
It called a home |
| [03:33.53] |
And whistles through the ghosts |
| [03:38.35] |
Still left behind |
| [03:44.69] |
(it) whistles through the ghosts |
| [03:49.42] |
Still left behind |
| [03:55.88] |
It whistles through the ghosts |
| [04:00.92] |
Still left behind |
| [04:07.60] |
Oh |
