Far away
In some lovely way I hear your call
Whatever happened to the mall?
Whatever happened to us all?
I know that we've never met before
But that was then
And now I need you more and more
Is someone here keeping the score
Is there only dying at your door?
Take me down off this cross
Lay me down, down in the dust
Oh love, take my hand across the crowd
I have been digging underground
What remains has yet to be found
I have no children, I have no husband
I have no reason to be alive
Oh, give me one
Green grass blades are all on fire
High on the crack that's in the wind
From your windows I see bars
And the birds they sing and they sing and they sing
And the dogs they bark and they bark and they bark and they bark
Whatever happened to the mall?
Whatever happened to us all?
Annie had two young baby boys
And Jimmy went crazy crazy crazy late last fall
