We carried you in our arms on Independence Day |
| [00:30.38] |
And now you throw us all aside and put us all away |
| [00:46.73] |
Oh, what dear daughter 'neath the sun could treat her father so |
| [01:03.24] |
To wait upon him hand and foot, yet always answer no |
| [01:16.63] |
|
| [01:20.20] |
Tears of rage, tears of grief |
| [01:28.51] |
Why must I always be the thief |
| [01:36.94] |
Come to me now, you know we're so alone |
| [01:45.89] |
And life is brief |
| [01:50.67] |
|
| [01:58.15] |
It was all so very painless when you ran out to receive |
| [02:15.10] |
All that false instruction which we never could believe |
| [02:31.70] |
And now the heart is filled with gold as if it were a purse |
| [02:48.35] |
But, oh, what kind of love is this which goes from bad to worse |
| [03:02.20] |
|
| [03:05.24] |
Tears of rage, tears of grief |
| [03:13.19] |
Why must I always be the thief |
| [03:21.88] |
Come to me now, you know we're so alone |
| [03:30.93] |
And life is brief |
| [03:35.18] |
|
| [03:42.29] |
We pointed you the way to go and scratched your name in sand |
| [03:58.85] |
Though you thought that it was nothing more than a place for you to stand |
| [04:15.40] |
I want you to know that while we watched you discover no one would be true |
| [04:32.17] |
That I myself was among the ones who thought it was just a childish thing to do |
| [04:46.00] |
|
| [04:49.37] |
Tears of rage, tears of grief |
| [04:57.29] |
Why must I always be the thief |
| [05:06.08] |
Come to me now, you know we're so alone |
| [05:15.33] |
And life is brief |
| [05:19.61] |
