I Think You Was Wearing Green (Interlude) - The Halfway Kid

Looking back upon my life and the places that I've been Pictures, faces, girls that I've loved, I try to remember when Faded memories on the wall, some names I have forgotten But each one is a memory, I look back on so often I look into the past I want to make it last I was there I was there I look into the past I want to make it last I was there I was there Looking back what I have done, there's lots more life to live At times, I feel overwhelmed, I question what I can give But I don't let it get me down or cause me too much sorrow There's no doubt about who I am, I always have tomorrow I look into the past I want to make it last I was there I was there I look into the past I want to make it last I was there I was there Looking back upon my life (on my life) Faded memories upon the wall (on the wall) Looking now at who I am (who am I?) I don't let it get me down (I don't let it, get me down) Looking back upon my life and the places that I've been Pictures, faces, girls that I've loved, I try to remember when But I don't let it get me down or cause me too much sorrow There's no doubt about who I am, I always have tomorrow I look into the past I want to make it last I was there I was there I look into the past I want to make it last I was there I was there

By the time I made it home You were already in bed Chubby cheek pressed to the pillow By a bed time book you read And I noticed that you looked older Than you did yesterday You've been growing up While I was away You made a pile of leaves in the front yard I guess it's already fall By the look of them pictures your momma took The two of you had a ball And it made me glad, but a little sad To see those games you played I missed a lot of smiles While I was away For every dollar I earn there's a lesson you learn without me there And every day I'm on the go I'm prayin' that you know that your daddy cares 'Cause the hardest part about workin' hard ain't the bills I gotta pay It's you growin' up while I was away And I found your note in the kitchen It's a real work of art A stickman holding your stick hand with "Daddy" written in a heart And it got me good 'cause I understood just what you meant to say You've been missing me too While I Was Away And for every dollar I earn there's a lesson you learn without me there For every day I'm on the go I'm prayin' that you know your daddy cares 'Cause the hardest part about workin' hard ain't the bills I gotta pay It's you growin' up while I was away No the hardest part about working hard ain't the bills I gotta pay It's everything that I missed While I was away

I've been on the road so long The straight-and-narrow I've been on Is crooked as this smile that I fake And I need you like I need a drink Or a cigarette and some time to think About the choices that you and me make And I feel lonely And I'm so sorry And I remember the morning of Christmas Day I was still drunk and you were so afraid To end up with someone like me And then it all seemed to fall apart In a foreign land, ridin' in your car As you sang, "I still don't know what love means" And man, that hurt me Just like I hurt you And I have done some thinking and changing along the way And I wish that you could just see who I am today I know I'm a damn good man I know you did the best you can With the one I was then I never wanted all of this But oil and water, they never mix Until you light a match and turn it to a flame And there won't be another time around I had my chance and I shot it down Just a bird and a rifle to blame Man, I hate that song I play it all night long And I have been thinking and changing along the way And I wish that you could just see who I am today I know I'm a damn good man I know you did the best you can With the one I was then And I've learned from my mistakes The next one won't be afraid Of the one I was then

Oh the stairs I scale To my one storey jail Will be nothing For there's an arm on which I'll lean And the arm will repay Every debt that was in its name Oh, on the day that the boys come home Those that don't feel the sun Beating down on their body numb Will know the heat on the day that they are cooking Those whose lights run strong With no hint of interruption Will know the dark when the boys come home As for those who look like us Managing our will into the dust Who withdraw when the lights have been turned on On their pitch-black nights There'll be a flame flickering alight As they're made to cross all of the bridges they're burning How I wonder what they'll say What they'll feel and to whom they'll pray Oh, on the day that the boys come home Move this pile of clothes Let me rest my bones For there'll be one less day Till the day I'm promised As I lower my eyes Counting down all of the lies Yes, one less day till I can see grown men made honest And the only fear I have Is that my rage fade before I can See that day that the boys come home

I woke up with my feet nailed down and my head moving the speed of sound Had a dream I was caught in a maze and couldn't find my way back out Some were born to move mountains around and some to rot away in jail I get an itch and when I am scratching everything can go to hell And how far is halfway there? I didn't see you on the trail Did almost become good enough should a good life be so hard won? Is that what our dreams have become? Sometimes when you're shooting an arrow it can fly Across the sky so proud I would go all the way to the sun if I didn't have to come back down And how far is halfway there? Didn't see you on the trail Did almost become good enough? Should a good life be so hard won Is that what our dreams have become? Have become Have you got a car and somewhere to sleep? Someone who loves you? Something to eat? I would say you're doing better than most Though maybe not as well as some And how far is halfway there? I didn't see you on the trail Did almost become good enough? Should a good life be so hard won? Is that what our dreams have become? Is that what our dreams have become?

每一種開始 都會有結束 是否這麼說 反而 專注 每個當下的感觸 擁抱的瞬間 時間已倒數 也許預知了 終將 孤獨 更想付出 有些愛 有些人 最後走進回憶 留在半途 剩缺憾 抵缺憾 彌補 一些知足 消逝的 留下的 殊途但卻依然 在愛裡同路 找回歸屬 從學愛開始 到愛著結束 我們都還在 試著 體悟 一句再見的溫度 離開從不是 願望的項目 卻在生命中 一再 反覆 成為複數 有些愛 有些人 最後走進回憶 留在半途 剩缺憾 抵缺憾 彌補 一些知足 消逝的 留下的 殊途但卻依然 在愛裡同路 找回歸屬 終於 你能 我能 清楚 Woo... 有一種呵護 Woo... 是雖然獨處 Woo... 還被你眷顧 Woo... Woo... 有些愛 有些人 最後走進回憶 留在半途 剩缺憾 抵缺憾 彌補 一些知足 消逝的 留下的 殊途但卻依然 在愛裡同路 找回歸屬 重新 你的 我的 開始 不是結束 那些 你的 我的 最初 沒有結束
