Augustines Book Of James song lyrics
Hey!
On a park bench sat a crimson beating heart
And behind him the girls played double dutch in the park
The sun began to burn his snow white skin
I guess you're headin' somewhere,
you're endin' up somewhere
Storm clouds began to form in his head
and criss-crossed his mind like a restless angry ocean
And the howling of hardship and heartache
Kneeling and grinned in his face
He stood there in his shoes
Unable to move
Kid, I drove all night here
To tell you I love you
And here lies my green eyes
rolled back in my head,
but theyre alive
And all the words can all get spoken
But I know we tried and you're forgiven
You're forgiven
He made his way down the boulevard
Near the 99 cent stores
and the garbage in their yards
And he began to sing
About the crickets in the backroads where we used to play
I guess you're headin' somewhere
Or endin' up somewhere
I tried the Bible, I tried the bottle
I tried the needle
I tried to love people
And in the end there ain't nothing to say
And in the end there ain't nothing you can say anyway
Stand here in my shoes
unable to move
Hat in my hands
At the bottom of the ocean
And here lies my green eyes
Rolled back in my head
but they're alive
and all the words can all get spoken
But I know we tried
And you're forgiven
and here lies my green eyes
rolled back in my head
but they're alive
and all the words can all get spoken
but i know we tried and you're forgiven
Ohh.
