David Wilcox - For Real слова песни
from East Asheville Hardware..............................................- (by Bob Franke) Death took the husband of a neighbor of mineOn a highway with a drunk at the wheelShe told me keep your clean hands off the laundry he leftAnd don`t tell me you know how I feelShe had a tape that he`d sent her from a Holiday InnThat she never played much in the dayBut when I heard him say I love you through the window at nightI just stayed the hell awayChorus:There`s a hole in the middle in the middle of the prettiest lifeSo the lawyers and the prophets sayNot your father nor your mother nor your lover`s ever gonna make it go awayNow there`s too much darkness in an endless nightTo be afraid of the way we feelLet`s be kind to each otherNot forever but for realMy father never put his parachute onIn the pacific back in World War IIHe said he`d rather go down in familiar flameThan get lost in that endless blueWell some of that blue got into my eyesAnd we never stopped fighting that warUntil I first understood about endlessnessAnd I loved him like never beforeThere`s a hole in the middle in the middle of the prettiest lifeSo the lawyers and the prophets sayNot your father nor your mother nor your lover`s ever gonna make it go awayNow there`s too much darkness in an endless nightTo be ashamed of the way we feelLet`s be kind to each otherNot forever but for realLucky my daughter got her mother`s noseAnd just a little of her father`s eyesAnd we`ve got just enough loveThat when the longing takes meIt takes me by surpriseAnd I remember that longing from my highway daysWhen I never could give it a nameAnd it`s lucky that I discovered in the nick of timeThat the woman and the child aren`t to blameFor the hole in the middle of a pretty good lifeI only face it `cause it`s here to stayNot my father nor my mother nor my daughter nor my loverNor the highway made it go awayBut now there`s too much darkness in an endless nightto be afraid of the way I feelI`ll be kind to my loved onesNot forever but for realSome say god is a lover, some say it`s an endless voidAnd some say both, and some say she`s angryAnd some say just annoyedBut if god felt a hammer in the palm of his handThen god knows the way we feelAnd then love lasts foreverForever and for real..............................................В© Bob Franke, all rights reserved
