April lay in your hands
|
The sign of rain for the year
|
You knew the time had come at last
|
Your heart no longer called you here
|
|
Oh, carolina, something's wrong
|
You've lost the wind in your sails
|
And now you float to a land
|
And you pray the ground will not fail
|
|
'cause everybody had one good year
|
Everybody let their long hair down
|
Everybody had one bad dream
|
Everybody saw the bright sun shine
|
Everybody had one hard time
|
Everybody had a real good time
|
Everybody pulled one sock up
|
Everybody put one foot down
|
|
You could say that this is fate
|
That left you alone standing here
|
It's like you've traded the world for
|
A chance, a ship to steer
|
You face the mirror on the wall
|
You hold a knife to your hair
|
You fill the sink with your curls
|
For the life you a have spread
|
|
'cause everybody had one good year...
|

One Foot Down
