To Leave Something Behind歌词

[00:09.74]I cannot say that I know you well
[00:17.95]But you can't lie to me with all these books that you sell
[00:25.05]I'm not trying to follow you to the end of the world
[00:33.92]I'm just trying to leave something behind
[00:40.87]
[00:42.16]Words have come from men and mouse
[00:49.42]But I can't help thinking that I've heard the wrong crowd
[00:57.08]When all the water is gone my job will be too
[01:05.65]And I'm trying to leave something behind
[01:09.85]
[01:11.05]Oh money is free but love costs more than our bread
[01:16.78]And the ceiling is hard to reach
[01:21.39]Oh the future ahead is broken and red
[01:29.89]But I'm trying to leave something behind
[01:34.13]
[01:40.23]This whole world is a foreign land
[01:45.89]We swallow the moon but we don't know our own hand
[01:52.03]We're running with the case but we ain't got the gold
[01:58.33]Yet we're trying to leave something behind
[02:02.08]
[02:05.78]My friends I believe we are at the wrong fight
[02:11.87]And I cannot read what I did not write
[02:17.93]I've been to His house, but the master is gone
[02:26.43]But I'd like to leave something behind
[02:30.48]
[02:34.43]There is a beast who has taken my blame
[02:39.97]You can put me to bed but you can't feel my pain
[02:45.87]When the machine has taken the soul from the man
[02:54.78]It's time to leave something behind
[02:58.93]
[03:00.18]Oh money is free but love costs more than our bread
[03:05.88]And the ceiling is hard to reach
[03:10.22]Oh the future ahead is already dead
[03:17.92]So I'm trying to leave something behind
[03:22.62]
[03:28.07]I got this feeling that I'm still at the shore
[03:35.97]And pockets don't know what it means to be poor
[03:41.97]I can get through the wall if you give me a door
[03:48.42]So I can leave something behind
[03:53.37]
[03:53.96]Oh wisdom is lost in the trees somewhere
[03:58.95]You're not going to find it in some mental gray hair
[04:04.96]It's locked up from those who hurry ahead
[04:10.90]And it's time to leave something behind
[04:15.10]
[04:16.11]Oh money is free but love costs more than our bread
[04:21.86]And the ceiling is hard to reach
[04:26.17]When my son is a man he will know what I meant
[04:34.82]I was just trying to leave something behind
[04:42.53]I was just trying to leave something behind
[04:46.43]
