Lyrics Montreal - red kite

Montreal

You are taking on evil forces
You don’t even know what you can do
Don’t go make it easy for them;
Is more than a pound of flesh
When your skin and bones, and the pictures you made
Yeah they pinned me to the wall
It hurt me to leave that morning
I’ll never forgive myself for the years I spent fooling around
You’ve been beat and busted up inside
Now you’ve got a wall needs breaking through
But you get a ten-tone hammer now
You’ve got a heart that is not made of cold black stone like you make out
sometimes
I know you girl, I’ve seen those cracks
I should have been there for you;
I should have done what you’ve done for me now
Stay close to me
Stay close to me
I’ve got you back this time
I remember how it went stopped talking to you
You stopped talking to me when we were 23
You drifted to the coast
I took off for the sea
We thought that was the end of what was you and me
Well then I hit the skids and you came back around
You took me to a show and then we went out on the town
You drank a little wine, you told me where you’d been
You told me about the terrors and the horror that you’d seen
Well I was out of line, I never meant to bail, I should have watched the waters
when your ships setting sail
I guess I should have known that I’d wind up on my own
This is an apology for the man I couldn’t be back when we were twenty three
