When Adam's plane went down in |
|
RomeI thought |
|
I was the last to see him |
|
Standing all alone on the sidewalk |
|
Maybe I was too young to know |
|
Maybe I saw a bit of me in him |
|
And in the strange wind whipping all around us |
|
We began ordinary citizens |
|
Washed up and so what? |
|
Born lateToo late |
|
God, it seems we've been stumbling a bit |
|
When Adam's plane went down in |
|
FranceI just covered up his body |
|
I'll admit |
|
I didn't know what |
|
I was doing |
|
Maybe I should have looked ahead |
|
Or lived only for the moment |
|
With a bit of red wine,he stumbled in to meet me |
|
Who am I to complain? |
|
Washed up and so what? |
|
Born lateToo late |
|
God, it seems we've been stumbling a bitbut |
|
Adam says, "I'm fine." |
|
When Adam's plane went down in |
|
OklahomaI had nearly forgotten all about him |
|
There was no blood |
|
He had no holes cut through him |
|
Still I looked away |
|
Let me try to explain |
|
He's still alive and he's haunting me |
|
We may end caged animals |
|
God, it seems we've been stumbling a bitbut |
|
Adam says, "I'm fine." |
|
In a way, we looked over our shoulders |
|
In a way, made it hard for ourselves |
|
In the sky is a bird that considers |
|
Where to fly and nobody else |
|
In a way, we were old to begin with |
|
In a way, made it hard for ourselves |
|
In the sky is a bird that considers |
|
Where to fly and nobody else |
