Lonely Soldier go home,
Lonely, but never alone..
Good eyes, see nothing to shoot
Good feet, feel good, givin' up good boots
So, ask your father how'd you fall
Ask your father how'd you fall
Like a leaf, sitting on the ground
Good for nothing, except kicking around..
She died with her hand stretched out
She died with a hungry mouth
She died with her mind full of doubt
and thoughts of weakening..
And so may your river never dry
May your mouth never lie
May you be satisfied to never know why
Sometimes, someone just wants to die...
Where did you get those cuts on your hand?
I thought I told you, by playin in the sand
There's always someone careless with glass
There's always questions that you don't wanna ask
She died with her hand stretched out
She died with a hungry mouth
She died with her mind full of doubt
and thoughts of weakening..
And so may your river never dry
May your mouth never lie
May you be satisfied to never know why
Sometimes, someone just wants to die...
So Lonely Soldier go home,
Lonely, but never alone..
Good eyes, see nothing to shoot
Good feet, feel good, givin' up good boots
Looking out the door I see the rain fall upon the funeral mourners
Parading in a wake of sad relations as their shoes fill up with water
And maybe Im too young to keep good love from going wrong
But tonight youre on my mind so you never know
When Im broken down and hungry for your love with no way to feed it
Where are you tonight, child you know how much I need it
Too young to hold on and too old to just break free and run
Sometimes a man gets carried away, when he feels like he should be having his fun
And much too blind to see the damage hes done
Sometimes a man must awake to find that really, he has no-one
So Ill wait for you... and Ill burn
Will I ever see your sweet return
Oh will I ever learn
Oh lover, you shouldve come over
cause its not too late
Lonely is the room, the bed is made, the open window lets the rain in
Burning in the corner is the only one who dreams he had you with him
My body turns and yearns for a sleep that will never come
Its never over, my kingdom for a kiss upon her shoulder
Its never over, all my riches for her smiles when I slept so soft against her
Its never over, all my blood for the sweetness of her laughter
Its never over, shes the tear that hangs inside my soul forever
Well maybe Im just too young
To keep good love from going wrong
Oh... lover, you shouldve come over
cause its not too late
Well I feel too young to hold on
And Im much too old to break free and run
Too deaf, dumb, and blind to see the damage Ive done
Sweet lover, you shouldve come over
Oh, love well Im waiting for you
Lover, you shouldve come over
cause its not too late
Ride on a big jet plane
Cryin' into your sleeves
Cos you miss those lovin arms
A lullaby keeps on playing
And you're thinking its a dream
Cos you miss those lovin arms
And you got a good mind to pray
Say It's all part of his plan
But what if he has got slippery hands
Well it's a sad face you're wearing
Like a burned out sun
Cos you miss those lovin arms
Do you think a grown man will care,
about his bootlace undone?
You just miss those lovin arms
Yeah, you miss those lovin arms
And you got a good mind to pray
Say It's all part of his plan
But what if he has got slippery hands?
Well God damn, you're a boy, not a man
When you miss those lovin arms
Well someday, when you're up there flying
And you miss those lovin arms
It isn't so far away, that sweet lullaby,
When you miss those lovin arms
