Peter, Paul & Mary - Rolling Home lyrics
Truth, with all it?s far out schemes
 Let's time decide what it should mean
 It?s not the time but just the dreams that die
 And sometimes when the room is still
 Time with so much truth to kill
 Leaves you by the window sill so tied
 Without a wing, to take you high
 Without a clue to tell you why
 Now, I just want to keep my name, not bother anybody?s game
 Without ideas of gold or fame or insane heights
 I don?t want a lot of money, I don?t want a Playboy bunny
 Just a love to call me honey late at night
 In my arms, by my side, in my arms late at night
 But I don?t know, I ain?t been told
 Ev?rybody wants a hand to hold
 They?re so afraid of being old
 So scared of dying, so unknown
 And so alone, rollin? home
 Well, I see the ones who crawl like moles
 Who for a front would trade their souls
 A broken mirror?s the only hole for them
 And for you who?d exchange yourselves
 Just to be somebody else
 Pretending things you never felt or meant
 Hey, you don?t live what you defend
 You can?t give so you just bend
 Now if you care what people think
 Like they supplied some missing link
 They?ll just stand back and watch you sink so slowPeter, Paul & Mary - Rolling Home - http://motolyrics.com/peter-paul-and-mary/rolling-home-lyrics.html
 They?ll never help you to decide
 They?ll only take you for a ride
 After which they?ll try and hide the fact that they don?t know
 What you should do, where you should go
 What you should do, where you should go
 But I don?t know, I ain't been told
 Everybody wants a hand to hold
 They?re so afraid of being old
 So scared of dying, so unknown
 And so alone, rollin? home
 There?s nothing big I want to prove
 No mountains that I need to move
 Or even claim what?s right or true for you
 My sights, my songs are slightly charred
 You might think they miss their mark
 But things are only what they are and nothing new
 But for me, I think they?ll do
 But for me, I think they?ll do
 Well, I can see a king and queen, a beggar falling at my feet
 They all must see the same sad dreams at night
 Futility and senseless war, pit the rich against the poor
 While cause is buried long before the fight
 For what was wrong, for what was right
 It?s just the strong, who ever says what?s right
 But I don?t know, I ain?t been told
 Ev?rybody wants a hand to hold
 They?re so afraid of being old
 So scared of dying, so unknown
 And so alone, rollin? home
