fires of waco - 18 years lyrics

18 years
hammer in hand
4 mouths to feed
a wife and a good man

the sun would set
and he’d retire
kerosene warmed the winter
open doors in the summertime

down by the river
we’d waste the day
the jetty is still there
but it’s not the same

6 nails held a house together
driven home by all we knew
quiet time after 7
running around the whole day through
and you never seem to notice
how fast the years can go
slipping through your hands
with nothing left to show

18 years
heart on sleeve
hand to mouth
and a sense of peace
we’d walk the streets
when the day was through
always looking
(for things to do)
feel the night air
(against my face)
and it takes me back
to that place

sometimes i search for the things
i learned in that town
i know if i went back
i wouldn’t find you now
it’s never easy
not knowing what’s to come
but for what it’s worth
i’ll always have a home
6 nails held a house together
driven home by all we knew
quiet time after 7
running around the whole day through
and you never seem to notice
how fast the years can go
slipping through your hands
with nothing left to show
