Lyrics
Many years ago on the corner of a home
There lived an old man with a trick up his sleeve
He sat by the window playing his fiddle
Singing songs like the ones from our dreams
Now it was late September and as I can remember
I was walking by the front of his home
When he called me over, said, "Girl, I need to tell you something
'Cause I've got no kids of my own"
He said if walking is for men and flying's just for us
Then why the hell do we have legs?
If dreaming's just for sleep and crying's just for death
Then I'd rather just sing instead
If youth is for the young and wisdom's for the old
Then we always learn when it's too late
And we'd make no mistakes
And we'd make no mistakes
Look at 'em run through the meadows, living just to let go
Of a life they've forgotten to love
And they could play all day, but it would never be the same
Because it's only life to be dreaming of
And now it's late November and if I can remember
Then I promise I'll head for the light
Because you're one step closer even when you think it's over
To the song that helps us get through the night
It goes, if walking is for men and flying's just for us
Then why the hell do we have legs?
If dreaming's just for sleep and crying's just for death
Then I'd rather just sing instead
If youth is for the young and wisdom's for the old
Then we always learn when it's too late
And we'd make no mistakes
And we'd make no mistakes
And now we're free, and now we're running
And do you see that silver lining in the distance?
And now we're free, and now we're running
And do you see that silver lining in the distance?
And now we're free, and now we're running
And do you see that silver lining in the distance?
And now we're free, and now we're running
And do you see that silver lining in the distance?
If walking is for men and flying's just for us
(And now we're free, and now we're running)
Then why the hell do we have legs?
(And do you see that silver lining in the distance?)
If dreaming's just for sleep and crying's just for death
(And now we're free, and now we're running)
Then I'd rather just sing instead
(And do you see that silver lining in the distance?)
If youth is for the young and wisdom's for the old
(And now we're free, and now we're running)
Then we always learn when it's too late
(And do you see that silver lining in the distance?)
And we'd make no mistakes
(No mistakes)
And we'd make no mistakes
(No mistakes)
And we'd make no mistakes
(No mistakes)
And we'd make no mistakes
