lyrics

Lived by the words of my brothers
Fell by the wayside of the street
Lived our lives rough and tumble
When we played
We played for keeps
One dizzy night in the autumn
She said hold out your palm
Let it speak

Though your stars are aligned
The way is not defined
Come with me and I'l show you
A little more in time
Don't let yourself fall
By the wayside

Walked by the sea for a long time
I let all my troubles sleep
I look for a sign and a vision
Maybe something I could keep
But the night slowly drew it's Black Curtains
And the mist couldn't hide my fear

Though your stars are aligned
The way is not defined
Come with me and I'l show you
A little more in time
Don't let yourself fall
By the wayside

Ooh ooh

The rolling storms of the winter
Shifted the landscape of my soul
In a flash in the eye of the beholder
Witnessed the birth of a girl
Laughter she got from her mother
But not her golden skin
Watch her play and I wonder
Who's magic is this?

Though your stars are aligned
The way is not defined
Come with me and I'l show you
A little more in time
Don't let yourself fall
By the wayside

Though your stars are aligned
The way is not defined
Come with me and I'l show you
A little more in time
Don't let yourself fall
By the wayside
