D’you wear a black armband
When they shot the man
Who said «Peace could last forever»
And in my first memories
They shot Kennedy
An I went numb when I learned to see
So I never fell for Vietnam.

Time's short your life's your own
And in the end we are just dust n' bones.
That's the way we live an hope to see the next day.
What’s so civil about war anyway?
And history hides the lies of our civil wars
Old at heart but I'm only 28
And I'm much too young to let love break my heart
Young at heart but it's getting much too late
To find ourselves so far apart.
If love is blind I guess I'll buy myself a cane.
I been lookin' for a trace
Lookin' for a heart
Lookin' for a lover in a world that's much too dark.
When you're talkin to yourself and nobody's home
You can fool yourself you came in this world alone...
We all come in from the cold, we come down from the wire
An everybody warms themselves to a different fire
When sometimes we get burned, you'd think sometime we'd learn
The one you love is the one that should take you higher
You ain't got no one, you better go back out and find her.
