Trouble is her only friend
And he's back again
Makes her body older than it really is.
She says it's high time she went away
No one's got much to say in this town.
Trouble is the only way
Is down down down.
As strong as you are tender you go.
I'm watching you breathing for the last time.
A song for your heart
But when it is quiet
I know what it means and
I'll carry you home
I'll carry you home.
If she had wings
She would fly away
And another day God will give her some.
Trouble is the only way
Is down down down.
As strong as you are tender you go.
I'm watching your breathing for the last time.
A song for your heart
But when it is quiet
I know what it means and
I'll carry you home
I'll carry you home.
And they all were born pretty
In New York city tonight
And someone's little girl was taken from the world tonight
Under the stars and stripes.
As strong as you are tender you go.
I'm watching you breathing for the last time.
A song for your heart
But when it is quiet
I know what it means and
I'll carry you home
I'll carry you home.
