At the End of the Day Lyrics
2 ContributorsAt the End of the Day Lyrics5 AM on a Sunday morning
Walking uptown
With the rain in the snow
When I saw you
It came without a warning
A face I had never seen
A feeling I had never known
Moving slow in the early morning
Making love in the quiet of the day
The world was waiting to take us to a new place
We knew that we were changing
We knew that we would never be the same
I know
I would do it all over again
At the end of the day
When we are alone
I get that feeling when I see your face
And I know
You'll be there at the end of the day
Two years later we are living together
We built our dream house on a hill by the sea
We could see the shadows that were growing in the distance
We were hiding
We were blind to what we did not want to see
I know
I would do it all over again
At the end of the day
When we are alone
I get that feeling when I see your face
And I know
We will be together
5 years gone by we have turned into strangers
We never talk since you went away
Now I find myself walking in circles
I keep looking for you everywhere
Keep waiting for the end of the day
I know
I would do it all again
At the end of the day
When I'm all alone
I get a feeling that I can't explain
If I knew then what I know now
Wouldn't change a thing if I could somehow
I would do it all over
Over and over again
I hope and I pray
We can do it all over again
I know
We will be together someday
At the end of the day
We will be together
At the end of the day
We will be together someday
At the end of the day
We will be together
Father of Mine Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Father of mine
Tell me where have you been?
You know I just closed my eyes
My whole world disappeared
Father of mine
Take me back to the day
Yeah, when I was still your golden boy
Back before you went away
I remember blue skies, walkin' the block
I loved it when you held me high
I loved to hear you talk
You would take me to the movie
You would take me to the beach
Take me to a place inside
That is so hard to reach
(Oh!)
Father of mine
Tell me, where did you go?
Yeah, you had the world inside your hand
But you did not seem to know
Father of mine
Tell me what do you see?
When you look back at your wasted life
And you don't see me
I was ten years old
Doin' all that I could
Wasn't easy for me to be a scared white boy
In a black neighborhood
Sometimes you would send me a birthday card
With a five dollar bill
Yeah, I never understood you then
And I guess I never will
[Chorus]
Daddy gave me a name
My daddy gave me a name
(Then he walked away)
Daddy gave me a name
(Then he walked away)
My daddy gave me a name
Yeah, oh yeah
Yeah
[Chorus]
Daddy gave me a name
Daddy gave me a name
(Then he walked away)
Daddy gave me a name
(Then he walked away)
My daddy gave me a name
Yeah, yeah
Oh yeah
Father of mine
Tell me where have you been?
Yeah, I just closed my eyes
And the world disappeared
Father of mine
Tell me how do you sleep?
With the children you abandoned
And the wife I saw you beat
I will never be safe
I will never be sane
I will always be weird inside
I will always be lame
Now I'm a grown man
With a child of my own
And I swear, I'm not gonna let her know
All the pain I have known
[Chorus]
(Then he walked away)
Daddy gave me a name
(Then he walked away)
My daddy gave me a name
(Then he walked away)
My daddy gave me a name
(Then he walked away)
Yeah, my daddy gave me a name
[Outro]
(Then he walked away)
Yeah
(Then he walked away)
Yeah
(Then he walked away)
Oh yeah
Fire Maple Song Lyrics
3 ContributorsFire Maple Song LyricsTurn away from the pain you don't want
Turning down to avoid them when they call
Strange words I heard a long, long time ago
I wish I could go back to a summertime
I knew more than twenty years ago
Lay between the sheets
Lie underneath the maple tree
Now I can't smile
Lying down in the grass with the wind around us
As we smile and talk
Listen to your grandma sing those country songs
She'd tell us how the maple turns to fire every four years
We'd lay in the grass all summer
Just to watch the autumn come around
I can't smile
I can't smile, yeah yeah yeah
Now I live alone
And you're so far away
Yeah, I call you every year
Just around the holidays
I still see you in the night
Lying above me in the grass
I can't smile
Turn away from the pain you don't want
Turning down to avoid them when they call
I can't believe this letter that says you died
I think I'm gonna go back to the house
In North Carolina and lay in the backyard
Get drunk and let the leaves just bury me, bury me
I can't smile
I can't smile
I don't what's happened to me
I don't what's happened to me
I can't smile, hey

Yeah, I just want to be a rock star...
I Will Buy You a New Life Lyrics
[Intro]
Mmmm....oh
Yeah
[Verse 1]
Here is the money that I owe you
Yeah, so you can pay the bills
I will give you more when I get paid again
I hate those people who love to tell you
Money is the root of all that kills
They have never been poor
They have never had the joy of a welfare Christmas
[Bridge]
Yeah
I know we will never look back
Yeah
[Verse 2]
You say you wake up crying
Yes, and you don't know why
You get up and you go lay down inside my baby's room
Yeah, I guess I'm doing okay
I moved in with the strangest guy
Can you believe he actually thinks that I am really alive
[Chorus]
I will buy you a garden where your flowers can bloom
I will buy you a new car, perfect, shiny, and new
I will buy you that big house way up in the West Hills
I will buy you a new life
Yes I will
[Verse 3]
Yes, I know all about that other guy
The handsome man with athletic thighs
I know about all the times before
With that obsessive little rich boy
They might make you think you're happy
Yeah, maybe for a minute or two
They can't make you laugh
No, they can't make you feel the way that I do
[Chorus]
I will buy you a garden where your flowers can bloom
I will buy you a new car, perfect, shiny, and new
I will buy you that big house way up in the West Hills
I will buy you a new life
Yeah
I will buy you a new life
[Bridge]
Yeah
I know we can never look back
Yeah
No
Will you please let me stay the night
(No one will ever know)
Will you please let me stay the night
(No one will ever know)
No one will ever know
[Chorus] X 2
I will buy you a garden where your flowers can bloom
I will buy you a new car, perfect, shiny, and new
I will buy you that big house way up in the west hills
I will buy you a new life
I will buy you a new life [To Fade]
