Song for Remembered Heroes
Lyricist:Nanci Griffith
Well it's that old time story of a new face to glory Someone wanted my soul for their pride What about the system of fools arranged for missing Well, I can't lie, they all pass with time
Why do my people come and go? I keep on leaving them behind and Lord, I miss them so I've watched my heroes change from silver into gold As the time goes, only memories grow
It's your smiles that I remember The dreams of the young and tender Coming real, but now it seems That highways are for foolish travelers Always bonded, always shackled by the prayer They're remembered in our dreams Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
Why do my people come and go? I keep on leaving them behind and Lord, I miss them so I've watched my heroes change from silver into gold As the time goes, only memories grow
I am just a bar-room child tried so hard to learn the style Of your drunken tears, the way they smile I guess I'll never learn the rules, I still play the simple fool Who loves without the chains of lies
Why do my people come and go? I keep on leaving them behind and Lord, I miss them so I've watched my heroes change from silver into gold As the time goes, only memories grow As the time goes, only memories grow
