[00:10.97] |
We carried you in our arms on Independence Day |
[00:27.23] |
And now you throw us all aside and put us all away |
[00:44.56] |
Oh, what dear daughter 'neath the sun could treat her father so |
[01:00.18] |
To wait upon him hand and foot, yet always tell him no |
[01:12.96] |
|
[01:16.73] |
Tears of rage, tears of grief |
[01:24.50] |
Why must I always be the thief |
[01:33.36] |
Come to me now, you know we're so alone |
[01:42.32] |
And life is brief |
[01:46.58] |
|
[01:53.91] |
It was all so very painless when you ran out to receive |
[02:10.53] |
All that false instruction which we never could believe |
[02:26.88] |
And now the heart is filled with gold as if it were a purse |
[02:43.57] |
But, oh, what kind of love is this which goes from bad to worse |
[02:56.69] |
|
[02:59.91] |
Tears of rage, tears of grief |
[03:07.73] |
Why must I always be the thief |
[03:16.39] |
Come to me now, you know we're so alone |
[03:25.32] |
And life is brief |
[03:29.76] |
|
[03:37.15] |
We pointed you the way to go and scratched your name in sand |
[03:53.60] |
Though you just thought it was nothing more than a place for you to stand |
[04:10.79] |
I want you to know that while we watched you discover no one would be true |
[04:26.67] |
That I myself was among the ones who thought it was just a childish thing to do |
[04:39.43] |
|
[04:43.26] |
Tears of rage, tears of grief |
[04:51.16] |
Why must I always be the thief |
[04:59.70] |
Come to me now, you know we're so alone |
[05:08.78] |
And life is brief |
[05:12.71] |
