'Lo and behold your mother is drinking again This might be the coldest winter since records began You were alone and steady with wintry calm Leading the children softly across the fold
Each morning you march your sisters like soldiers to school 'Cause lo and behold your father has drunk quite a few You were alone and steady with wintry calm Somewhere inside the fire of your youth went dar But you swear blind there is no weight in the water pail And you say 'my love, you take the cards that you're dealt' Cause there's no guiding light arcing a line to Bethlehem
If it's dark outside, you light the fire yourself
Darling when the ice caps melt When the devils in the bible belt Don't you cower in your bed I'll be at the five-four-five You can meet me at the railway line Don't look so scared
'Cause we've been through worse than this before we could talk
And the trick of it is, don't be afraid anymore Oh, the trick of it is, don't be afraid anymoreTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
