Down the hill
|
Through the light
|
Past the city jail
|
I watch and walk
|
Every night
|
I wondered who to tell
|
|
How can I tell my father?
|
He¡¯s been gone all these years
|
I couldn¡¯t tell my father
|
I couldn¡¯t bear the tears
|
|
I was lost
|
In a rage
|
Didn¡¯t ever mean to be
|
Now the cost
|
Has set the stage
|
And it will bury me
|
