We carried you in our arms on Independence Day |
| [00:27.23] |
And now you throw us all aside and put us all away |
| [00:44.56] |
Oh, what dear daughter 'neath the sun could treat her father so |
| [01:00.18] |
To wait upon him hand and foot, yet always tell him no |
| [01:12.96] |
|
| [01:16.73] |
Tears of rage, tears of grief |
| [01:24.50] |
Why must I always be the thief |
| [01:33.36] |
Come to me now, you know we're so alone |
| [01:42.32] |
And life is brief |
| [01:46.58] |
|
| [01:53.91] |
It was all so very painless when you ran out to receive |
| [02:10.53] |
All that false instruction which we never could believe |
| [02:26.88] |
And now the heart is filled with gold as if it were a purse |
| [02:43.57] |
But, oh, what kind of love is this which goes from bad to worse |
| [02:56.69] |
|
| [02:59.91] |
Tears of rage, tears of grief |
| [03:07.73] |
Why must I always be the thief |
| [03:16.39] |
Come to me now, you know we're so alone |
| [03:25.32] |
And life is brief |
| [03:29.76] |
|
| [03:37.15] |
We pointed you the way to go and scratched your name in sand |
| [03:53.60] |
Though you just thought it was nothing more than a place for you to stand |
| [04:10.79] |
I want you to know that while we watched you discover no one would be true |
| [04:26.67] |
That I myself was among the ones who thought it was just a childish thing to do |
| [04:39.43] |
|
| [04:43.26] |
Tears of rage, tears of grief |
| [04:51.16] |
Why must I always be the thief |
| [04:59.70] |
Come to me now, you know we're so alone |
| [05:08.78] |
And life is brief |
| [05:12.71] |
