steve walsh - pages of old lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i don’t know what i expected
but it wasn’t this, it wasn’t this
i don’t know what i was hopin’ for
but it wasn’t this, it wasn’t this
the thread light from the whiskey moon
memories steep in the seams of the ether
silver and gold, pages of old
oh, yeah

[verse 2]
i don’t remember how i got here
i just started walkin’ west
past the factory, past forgotten boxcar people
coveting eyes that follow you
in the mornin’ the strike whistle calls ’em out
thirty hands, fifteen dirty faces
anger and pride–children no more, oh no
silver and gold, pages of old

[bridge]
i wanna heal the healer, plead my case
count the sh-lls that fall from outer sp-ce
i wanna laugh out loud, tell a good lie
sell my soul, be a shoulder to cry on
oh father, dead father
your shadow is long, long gone

[verse 3]
well i’m gonna walk to the red horizon
where these footsteps melt together
if the boneyard there’s too deep or too cold
will our souls withstand the weather
i have lost my heart for good this time
and now i’ll never, never get it back
silver and gold, pages of old
silver and gold, pages of old
