LYRICS
PAUSE AFTER INTRO:
cross through the border states to the wrong side
and look away, virginia
1ST VERSE:
spend every day like the past is a bridge crossing twenty years
whispers away, not so much
get your poison tongue out of my ear
here's a fact you cannot rise above:
we'll have problems and then we'll have bigger ones
CHORUS 1:
from damage to damned control
you wanted to go alone though
i never said no
2ND VERSE:
spiteful confrontations, trial separations,
it's just another present to get past
the man was very helpful but i knew he wouldn't stay
there used to be a baby but the baby went away
CHORUS 2+3:
forswear what you undergo
you wanted to go alone though
i never said no
INTERLUDE:
it doesn't make me cry to hear dylan say
most likely you go your way
i'll go mine
This has become my favourite song to play as a
band so if you have any comments, corrections or
congratulations send em to christopherson5@hotmail.com
