All the rain came down |
|
On a cold new town |
|
As he carried you away |
|
From your father's hand |
|
That always seemed like a fist |
|
Reaching out to make you pay |
|
He came like a hero from the factory floor |
|
With the sun and moon as gifts |
|
But the only son you ever saw |
|
Were the two he left you with |
|
Oh Lord where did the feeling go |
|
Oh Lord I never felt so low |
|
Now the skirts hang so heavy around your head |
|
That you never knew you were young |
|
Because you played chance with a lifetime's romance |
|
And the price was far too long |
|
Oh Lord where did the feeling go |
|
Oh Lord I never felt so low |
|
... |
