Lyrics
Listen to the laugh
Look into his eyes
He doesn't lie when he tells you
When he tells you goodbye
A baby boy inside
A mother's arms tonight
Wants to stay close to home
But she prays that they won't fight
I feel some sorrow for tomorrow
I feel some sympathy for everything
That's happened to my home
My place
My space
My land
My world
My shelter
And it's never getting better
Yeah.
They raised the flag up on the hill
My father listened to his will
You left in honor for a while
His letters always made me smile
He shot the heart that bled my pain
My jacket covered you from rain
While green and gold turn bitter grey
I couldn't find the words to say
I feel some sorrow for tomorrow
I feel some sympathy for everything
That's happened to my home
My place
My space
My land
My world
My shelter
And it's never getting better
Yeah.
I don't want you leaving
You keep me alive
I can't live without you
I don't wanna try
`Cause we're gonna make it
One more time
One more time
I feel some sorrow for tomorrow
I feel some sympathy for everything
That's happened to my home
My place
My space
My land
My world
My shelter
And everything's that happened to my world
I feel sympathy
