I saw this old friend at the Eveleigh bar Life hadn't treated him so well A heart so cold and words so blue In a body home from hell
He said, If I could tell you one thing, I would tell you this, There's only one mistake that I have made It's giving up the music in my fingertips By trying to get to Heaven through my veins
All our lives, I watched you search beneath the fallen skies This was no path to glory, you always walked before me, But you came back to warn me All our lives
I saw this woman with tears in her eyes Driving beside me yesterday She turned her head, then I turned mine Then I watched her drive away
I thought if I could tell her something, I would tell her this There's only two mistakes that I have made It's running from the people who could love me best And trying to fix a world that I can't change
All our lives, I watched you search beneath the fallen skies This was no path to glory, you always walked before me, But you came back to warn me All our lives
(All our lives) I remember being young and staring at my hands In the middle of the night, the first light of the morning Room like a church, voices down the hall Barely made 'em out, but sometimes you don't want to know
And now that I'm older, I can tell you this The mornings I miss, but I don't really miss the voices You've got a choice, I've got the hands Skeletons and plans, you've got to let 'em go
All our lives, I watched you search beneath the falling skies All our lives, I watched you search beneath the falling skies This was no path to glory, you always walked before me, But you came back to warn me, All our lives
All our lives, I watched you search beneath the falling skies This was no path to glory, you always walked before me, But you came back to warn me, All our livesTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
