Skylark

(альбом: Ryan Amador - 2013)

The skylark says I'm older now cause I've been living alone
That no matter how hard I try I can't make my old house a home
But I said I knew myself best when I was young
And I thought I'd use the rest to keep my home-grown

And he said, "Little battles came and went"
"And my memories laid to rest"
"But the time you spent a kid"
"Leaves you broken in"

The skylark says I can't go back to the old days
That time must pass and every life runs a rapid pace
But I thought I'd squeezed that illusion dry
But in my memories I've kept the dead days alive
And it said, "Little battles bring you home"
"But it's time to let them go"
"And the way you stay on that vagabond train is by getting on board"
"So get right on boy"
"And say ooh skylark call my name and rest my head in shame"
"Say ooh skylark give me grace I'm falling on my way"

Little battles came and went
And my memories laid to rest
But the time I spent a kid
Leaves me broken in

And the hardest part of life
Is the rate we move through time
And the only way you can stay alive
Is through the art of getting by
The art of love and the art fight
The art of good ones by your side
The art of striving to survive
And say ooh skylark call my name and rest my head in shame
And say ooh skylark give me grace, I'm falling on my way
