Outside the church bells toll For this wasteland we call home There's nowhere left to hide or run to Daddy drank real hard late at night He'd say without love life's a long fight L promised I'd win one fight for him babe The storm outside is raging I close my eyes l think about you babe There's got to be something left worth saving We've wasted too much time I played the fool I played the soldier But my struggling days are over I wanted everything When all l needed was you babe L didn't understand I was just a young boy All I wanted was the rich man's play toys I didn't really care how I got there baby Now I've seen a thousand dreams die In the oil fields in the coal mines No need to wonder why Nobody's satisfied lately The storm outside is raging I close my eyes l think about you babe There's got to be something left worth saving We've wasted too much time I played the fool I played the soldier But my struggling days are over I wanted everything When all l needed was you babe
