Cowboy Junkies - Thirty Summers lyrics
Caught in the vice of heaven and earth He turned his life into a cell Imprisoned by the doubts that hound us all And the desires that we all know so well His days he lost to promises His nights he purged of dreams And he would wake in the hours before sunrise And dread the coming of the day Never thought a man could become so desperate Never thought a life could lose so much hope To tear at the roots around you As if in manacles or irons or ropes They say he told his children that all he taught was lost And that love and pride and honesty Were to be gained at too high a cost It's been thirty summers that I've spent with him And I expect thirty more to pass He is blessed by life in so many ways That I could never turn my back But I need just one more reminder Of that man that he used to be If he would just look deep into my eyes And say it's in you my love, that I will find the key |
