Straylight Run
"The Miracle That Never Came"
My window pane was leaking glass
Cut my arm
Then you laughed
I jumped from just one story high
And now i'm stuck here till i die
Now i'm stuck here till i die
Now i'm stuck here till i die
Don't you remember me?
I swear i knew you when i knew
You were there we loved and learned under the sun
We had more fun than anyone
She's eight years old and moving out
She's half way cross the country now
She's smarter than the lot of us
She doesn't break or bend or fuss
Maybe she's in heaven now
Or maybe she's back here somehow
She's wearing all her finest clothes
And draped in jewelry head to toe
It is impossible to know
There is no ending to the show
The grand finale ..?..
One day we're here the next we're not
Ohhh look what i've done here
Ooh ooh look what i've done here
Let these thoughts creep in
Let em seep right in
Let these thoughts creep in
Let em seep right in
I hope she doesn't have to see
What became of her family
Her father left after she died
Her brothers cried and cried and cried
She took your man i took your name
A year ago and never came
..?..life is beautiful
She looked at me..?..
I used to sing you lullabies
I'd hold you in and start to cry
I was your mother and your friend
Dont you remember me from then?
I was your mother and you friend
Dont you remember me from then?
