Far away
|
In some lovely way I hear your call
|
Whatever happened to them all?
|
Whatever happened to us all?
|
|
I know that we've never met before
|
But that was then, and now I need you more
|
Is someone here keeping the score?
|
Is there only dying at your door?
|
Taking me down off this cross
|
Lay me down, down, down in the dust
|
Whoa, love, take my hand across the crowd
|
I have been digging underground
|
What'er remains is yet to be found
|
I have no children
|
I have no husband
|
I have no reason
|
To be alive
|
Oh, give me one
|
|
Green grass blades are all on fire
|
I own the crack that's in the wind
|
From your window I see bars & the birds
|
They sing & they sing & they sing & they sing
|
And the dogs
|
They bark & they bark & they bark & they bark & they bark
|
|
Ah...
|
|
Whatever happened to them all?
|
Whatever happened to us all?
|
|
Annie had two young baby boys
|
And Jimi went crazy, crazy, crazy late last fall
|
Ah...
|
