| All the rain came down
|
| on a cold new town
|
| as he carried you away
|
| from your fathers 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
|
| ohh lord, where did the feeling go
|
| ohh lord, i never felt so low
|
| Now the skirts hang so heavy around your head
|
| but you never knew you were young
|
| because you played chance with a lifetimes romance
|
| and the price was far too long |
