| [00:08.65] |
We carried you in our arms |
| [00:10.57] |
On Independence Day |
| [00:17.64] |
And now you’d throw us all aside |
| [00:23.68] |
And put us on our way |
| [00:30.71] |
Oh what dear daughter ’neath the sun |
| [00:37.68] |
Would treat a father so |
| [00:44.29] |
To wait upon him hand and foot |
| [00:51.79] |
And always tell him, “No?” |
| [00:58.80] |
Tears of rage, tears of grief |
| [01:07.24] |
Why must I always be the thief? |
| [01:12.41] |
Come to me now, you know |
| [01:15.88] |
We’re so alone |
| [01:22.76] |
And life is brief |
| [01:24.04] |
|
| [01:28.46] |
We pointed out the way to go |
| [01:33.01] |
And scratched your name in sand |
| [01:41.31] |
Though you just thought it was nothing more |
| [01:51.18] |
Than a place for you to stand |
| [01:52.99] |
Now, I want you to know that while we watched |
| [02:00.12] |
You discover there was no one true |
| [02:07.33] |
Most ev’rybody really thought |
| [02:13.35] |
It was a childish thing to do |
| [02:20.88] |
Tears of rage, tears of grief |
| [02:29.82] |
Must I always be the thief? |
| [02:33.96] |
Come to me now, you know |
| [02:37.71] |
We’re so low |
| [02:45.09] |
And life is brief |
| [02:46.61] |
|
| [02:50.52] |
It was all very painless |
| [02:55.22] |
When you went out to receive |
| [03:02.43] |
All that false instruction |
| [03:07.78] |
Which we never could believe |
| [03:14.93] |
And now the heart is filled with gold |
| [03:22.03] |
As if it was a purse |
| [03:28.44] |
But, oh, what kind of love is this |
| [03:35.31] |
Which goes from bad to worse? |
| [03:47.75] |
Tears of rage, tears of grief |
| [03:49.25] |
Must I always be the thief? |
| [03:55.76] |
Come to me now, you know |
| [04:00.07] |
We’re so low |
| [04:03.21] |
And life is brief |
