It took hold of me I saw a grown man crying I ricocheted the difference as a stranger kindly watching From a park bench across the street
And it took hold of me I wonder what this man is borrowing Has he unlocked the pattern from that well that he's been drawing from As he dips the shadows unto his feet?
And it took hold of me Was someone planting him a garden? Was her hair as long as the streams within a fountain Pouring light Into a home he could not keep
Oh how nice to see a pattern broken When I've never even seen my father weep
So it took hold of me Was someone planting him a daughter Was her life as strong as the river pushing water from the sides And gently out to sea
And it took hold of me I offer cigarette and lighter I know it isn't much but if it makes spirits feel higher We push the smoke out into the street Into the street Into the streetTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
