lyrics
Carried by your hearts you moved to the city in the summer
You wouldn’t be fettered down by the sins of your fathers
And I know you’re half the man you used to be
Yet I know that deep down you’re just like me
The August air stuck to your lungs in the shade of the willow
Yet summer’s embrace, to you felt like the warmth of your pillow
And I know somehow we’ll have to find our way
The cloudy news that never, ever fades
Always, we wait for you
Always, it aches for you
Always, we wait for you
Always, it aches for you
Sickness is never far (It’s calling)
Try not to be alarmed (Stay calm, now)
Each year I’m passing by (Unknowing)
The day that I will die
