The Godfather

Dag Nasty
(album: Wig Out At Denko´s)

always caring always mine
still always reaching for what isn´t there
it just isn´t there at all
the smallest doubt can swell and grow
and all hope shrinks into indifference
it makes no difference to me
I was only five
when I heard the tale of the little train that said
" I think I can "
but what´s hard to give is hard to get
and once you´ve lost it it´s always gone
it´s always gone
sometimes I wish that I could cry
instead of wondering what´s on her mind
what was on my mind this time
for consolation there´s always a next time
but will you take the time?
it will take some time
don´t misunderstand
half the time I can
don´t misunderstand
half the time I only think I can
I was only five
when I heard the tale of the little train that said
" I think I can"
but what´s hard to give is hard to get
and once you´ve lost it it´s always gone
it´s always gone
standing on the railroad tracks
I hear the whistle the godfather´s call
the biggest train of all
it´s speeding closer towards the bridge
I´m hoping it can show me how it´s done
