lyrics

you say i should be
other than i am
one who shows the signs
of an everlasting man

for me you're like the torch
fir me you'll find the words
its comforting to see what were heading for.

So i give you my hand
trust in what you've done
there's a ship in the harbor
sets the sailors to the sun

i know its for the best
i don't wanna let them down
everyone I've loved
i loved in this town

but my friend you say
there's nothing for us now
it wont be long
before the soldiers are coming down

but this the only way
to save whats left between us
before they
burn the ground beneth us
\
isn't it a coward who runs
and a fool who follows the sun

I dont wanna be
other then i am
and if he steps on me
i'll kill that man
cause for me there's nothing else
for me this is my home
and i cant leave them
if they wont leave him alone

i remember when we met
\ my life was at an end
all along you were
one of them

and i was almost swept away
by your voice so full of love
but now i know what that love was made of.

our children have grown up in the pumkin patch
and gone through life with hardly a scratch
and I'm so glad you convinced me
to come here and stay
otherwise how could i
keep the crows away.
