Lyrics Silverstein

Silverstein

In Memory Of...

Fighting tears, trembling voice straight to my ear

A moment I'll never forget

Someone I love, telling me someone I love

Had just been called to his reward

24, a leader of farther undared

We'll never be with him again

Take me down to the garden behind the old house

Sail away with me

Words can be the most beautiful or the most cold

I didn't know what to say

To a father who suddenly loses his son

I still think about that every day

Take me down to the garden behind the old house

Sail away with me

Break it down

Trace the steps moving to the gold town

Lost your past from me

Made the plans and backed out

Stayed at home and did nothing

But now I'm taking the 400 up north

The last time I'll ever see your face

I don't want to believe this is it

I want to believe in something more

Growing up wasn't easy for this boy

Who only wanted to live and do what's right

I can't feel (I can't feel)

I can't feel my heart when I am myself

I can't feel (I can't feel)

I can't feel the pain when I hurt my

I can't feel (I can't feel)

But it's taking you further, and further, away

Take me down to the garden behind the old house

Sail away with me

Break it down

Trace the steps moving to the gold town

Lost your past from me

From me (From me)

Take me down to the garden behind the old house

Sail away with me
