Viewing Lyrics for The Singer:
| | | Artist: | Cave Nick |
| | Album: | Miscellaneous | | Track: | The Singer | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 1 | | | | Lyrics: | (Cash, Daniels)
As I walk these narrow streets
Where a million passin feet have
trod before me
With my guitar in my hand
Suddenly I realize nobody knows me
Where yesterday the multitude
Screamed and cried my name out for a song
Today the
streets are empty
And the crowds have all gone home
I pass a million
houses
But there is no place that I belong
All I knew to give you
Was song after song
after song
All the truths I tried to tell you
Were as distant to you as the
moon
Born 200 years too late
And 200 years too soon
I'm a child of this
age
Locked into the pages of your book
And when I am but dust and clay
And all the
children stop to take a look
Will they marvel at the miracles I did perform
And the heights I did aspire
Or will they tear out the pages of the book
To light a
fire
With the rain on my face
There is no place that I belong
Did you
forget this fucking singer so soon?
And did you forget my song? | | | |
