Lyrics

Return

A little while ago I saw this brave man
He said goodbye and died the other day
A little while ago I saw this brave man
He took his sins and went away.

A little while ago I saw this young man
He ruined his whole life with Mary J
A little while ago I saw this young man
He still regrets she didn't stay

We will all come down
When we hit the ground

We can't save our souls
Cause we haven't got the time
So we all play our roles
Commit our daily crimes

We will all come down
When we hit the ground

A little while ago I saw this woman
She stared at me with sad and hungry eyes
A little while ago I saw this woman
I gave her bread that she despised.

We will all come down
When we hit the ground

A little while ago I saw this old boy
His eyes revealed the pain he couldn't share
A little while ago I saw this old boy
His courage broke and noone cared.

We will all come down
When we hit the ground

We can't save our souls
Cause we haven't got the time
So we all play our roles
Commit our daily crimes

We will all come down
When we hit the ground

A little while ago I saw this young girl
Her illness made her life a misery
A little while ago I heard this young girl
Had hung herself from a cherry-tree

We will all come down
When we hit the ground

We can't save our souls
Cause we haven't got the time
So we all play our roles
Commit our daily crimes

We will all come down
When we hit the ground (x3)
