Far Away

Far away

In some lovely way I hear your call

Whatever happened to the mall?

Whatever happened to us all?

I know that we've never met before

But that was then

And now I need you more and more

Is someone here keeping the score

Is there only dying at your door?

Take me down off this cross

Lay me down, down in the dust

Oh love, take my hand across the crowd

I have been digging underground

What remains has yet to be found

I have no children, I have no husband

I have no reason to be alive

Oh give me one

Green grass blades are all on fire

High on the crack that's in the wind

From your windows I see bars

And the birds they sing and they sing and they sing

And the dogs they bark and they bark and they bark and they bark

Whatever happened to the mall?

Whatever happened to us all?

Annie had two young baby boys

And Jimmy went crazy crazy crazy late last fall
