Hymn #35
Here I've come to know the wishlist of my father I have come to know the shipwrecks where he wished I have come to wish aloud among the overdressed crowd Come to witness now the sinking of the ship Throwing pennies from the seatop next to it And I've come to roam the forest past the village With a dozen lazy horses and my cart I've come here to get high, to do more than just get by I have come to test the timber of my heart Oh I've come to test the timber of my heart And I've come to be untroubled in my seeking And I've come to see that nothing is for naught I've come to reach out blind, to reach forward and behind For the more I seek the more I'm saught Yeah, the more I seek the more I'm saught And I've come to meet the sherrif and his posse To offer him the broad side of my jaw I've come here to get broke, and then maybe bum a smoke We'll go drinkin two towns over afterall Oh We'll go drinkin two twons over after all And I've come to meet the legendary takers I've only come to ask them for a lot Letras de cancionesAnd they say I come with less than I should rightfully posess I say the more I buy the more I'm bought and the more I'm bought the less I cost And I've come to take their servants and their surplus And I've come to take their raincoats and their speed And I've come to get my fill, to ransack and spill I have come to take the harvest for the seed I have come to take the harvest for the seed And I've come to know the manger that she's sleeping I've come to be the stranger that you keep I have come from down the road, and my footsteps never slowed Before we met I knew we'd meet (x2) And I've come here to ignore your cries and heartaches I've come here to closely listen to your sing i've come here to insist that i leave here with a kiss and i've come here to say exactly what i mean i mean so many things and you've come to know me stubborn as a butcher and you've come to know me thankless as a guest but will you recognize my face when god's aweful grace strips me of my jacket and my vest and reveals the treasure of my chest (Thanks to Vi for these lyrics) From Letras Mania
