No one thought you could live this long They said your mother smoked On one thinks that you can think You are so very slow We all know that you can't talk But you stared for a while At a piece from the paper yesterday
See the reptile cross the road Somewhere in Flordia Traffic stops the cops get out In awe of the predator The thing that chills the blood the most Is the way it doesn't care
As I watched you watch this scene I saw your eyes turn to green And a smile crossed your face For the first time
I've seen bones that are very old Older than you or me Some that walked so long ago Still walk around today Though you're young and you'll never talk I think you understand The ties that bind, the blood that flows Still hold us in their sway And you will never be alone
The salt in your eye is the salt in the sea The grist in your bones is the dust and the dirt You scratched your skin but it didn't seem to hurt You fell asleep to unknown violent dreams And you will never be alone You will never be aloneTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
