It’s been a long time
Since I left home
Not taking a lot with me
Just willing to make it on my own

Be sure where to go
That’s what I’ve been told
But I was happy just for being on the road

I can bring you flowers
I can bring you rain
I can bring whatever you want me to ease you pain

It’s all that I collected on the road
And now I bring it back home

It’s been a long time
Since I’ve been away from home
Just hoping for them to see
I’m about to make it on my own

Be sure where to go
That’s what I’ve been told
But I was happy just for being on the road

I can bring you flowers
I can bring you rain
I can bring whatever you want me to ease you pain
I can bring you silver
I can bring you gold
I can bring whatever you need me to heat your cold

It’s all that I collected on the road
It’s all that I collected on the road
And now I bring it back home
And now I bring it back home

On a cold and rainy afternoonYou found my pieces fighting back to lifePatiently you’re lifting me from my own obscurityIn no time I’ll be walking again
I’ve been holding more than I could takeThough I've heard we only get what we deserveWhat if now I wanna say I am doneWill I ever get to be someone
Please take this load off my shoulderSo I can do the same for youI’ll take you homeSo one dayYou can take me too
On a cold and rainy afternoonI found your pieces fighting back to lifePatiently we are lifting each otherIn no time we will be walking again
Please take this load off my shoulderSo I can do the same for youI’ll take you homeSo one dayYou can take me too
So one dayYou can take me tooSo one day
Please take this load off my shoulderSo I can do the same for youI’ll take you homeSo one dayYou can take me too

Il y avait trop de dope hier soir
De retour sur la route à la lumière du matin
On suivra les cimes
Et maintenant tu me montres ce que tu as.
On peut sentir les vents errants
Soufflant dans nos cheveux de montagne
Sur ces anciennes routes, le monde se réveille.
Il y avait trop de fantôme hier soir
De retour sur la route à la lumière du matin
On suivra les cimes
Et maintenant tu me montres ce que tu as.
As-tu déjà vu cette route
Il y avait trop d’amour hier soir !
Montre-moi ce que tu as, ce que tu as.

I can't wait to be back home with everyone,
I love and there' s not long to wait,
Christmas is on the way.

Oh oh oh oh oh oh.

Time to come together again,
Christmas is on the way.

It's been a good year but there have been hard times,
Having you close by is all I need,
To feel complete.

It's been too long since we got together,
Let's make memories we'll share forever ,
I feel it,
Christmas is on the way.

I can't wait to be back home with everyone,
I love and there's not long to wait,
Christmas is on the way.

Oh oh oh oh oh oh.

Time to come together again,
Christmas is on the way.

Rat a tap tap;
Oh don’t you come and ask;
Am I a coming back?
The sky has gone black on us.

Don’t you weep –
Blame myself for these things
Known I was stronger than he –
And all you weaklings knew it.

Toodle loo;
They all abandoned you
One bruised and another screwed,
But I was the only loved.

Oh, Hannah Leah …
I was the only love.

Keep that bed.
Now brother, keep that rug.
Lord knows I was given so much –
And the devil keeps me fed.

On the wall. On the stove –
And in the blank book you draw –
There are signs of Hannah Leah
There are signs of our love.

Oh, Hannah Leah …
There are signs of love.

On a black, blue night
I go a wandering:
Out over Houston –
Along Avenue A.
Hannah Leah
On Avenue A.

Ku Klux Klan;
There’s evil in every man.
Come love her when you can –
And see about Hannah Leah.

Thinking of the memories
Of a distant timeTrying hard to recollect the pieces of my lifeI realise there’s so much to be thankful for
Each and every day
I could see the sunriseAnd always be back homeThough I feel I still have to learn to let goLet go
Cannot build a castle on my ownNeed a friend, a face I can count on
Please don’t forget I care for youNo matter if it’s as far as the moonOur memories will remain

All this time, seven years have gone by.
Left me out there on my own to survive.

All this time I’ve been waiting on a dime
So I’m told to believe, all this time.
Lift me up. I’m feeling alone.
I am delivered, now I’m ready to go home.

All this time I’ve been waiting on a dime
So I’m called to believe to survive.
All I hear is your voice in my ear
So I’m told, this is life. All this time

Is there out there still
Life on the streets
And hearts still beating
In the city?
Or are there only eyes
That burn with fear
And tears that sear
Down the faces of the dead?
Seems to me we lost them long ago
There’s too much pain
Not much pity
Got to get these tombstones
Off my brain
Here and now
Not in the fucking ever after.

FR:

Est-ce que dehors il y a encore
De la vie dans les rues
Et des coeurs qui battent
Dans la ville?
Ou n'y a t'il que des yeux
Qui brûlent appeurés
Et des larmes qui brûlent
En coulant les visages des morts
Il me semble que nous les avons perdus il y a longtemps
Il y a trop de douleur
Peu de pitié
Il faut que je chasse ces pierres tombales
Ee mon esprit
Ici et maintenant
Pas dans ce putain de lendemain
