[Verse 1]
We both know
The wave of opportunity goes way too slow
So put your ancient hand in mine
And never let go
I’m done with all the dope
You gotta let the children know
I’m comin' home
[Verse 2]
Don’t take more than what you should
Do as the good Lord would
Say your piece and go now
Follow all the righteous way
Hold your head up high today
Say your piece and go now
[Verse 3]
Don’t pretend
I never swept you off your feet when you know I did
Swept you in the big bin
And led you on, I’m here even when I’m gone
Never wanna be alone
I’m comin' home
[Bridge]
All apologies to your mother
And all those others who were lost
Never wanted to let us sing
No they never let you sing
No they never
They just never saw
What the color blue skies
Keep chugging right along
Killing with the song
And the sting
Yeah, you kill them with the sting
Ooh yeah
[Outro]
Don’t take more than what you should
Do as the good Lord would
Say your piece and go now
