Send Us A Saint

Get Up Kids (The)
(album: Guilt Show)

Saw a kid on the street begging for a dime
He´s lost to the world
His family, his love and his life
It´s hard to sleep with nothing to eat and a habit
Saw a business man, suit and tie
He bought up his happiness
Still has a hole inside
Taking pills for all of his guilt and loneliness

Send us a saint
Some truth in the wind
If it all has to end
I´ll never want to lose this feeling
A lover of love
If there´s heaven above
I´ll never want to lose this feeling
Beautiful girls
Hurts me the most to say
I´ll never want to lose this feeling
Lose this feeling

Saw an old woman in the kitchen line
Singing "You got yours
Well, baby it´s time to get mine"
She´s been waiting a whole life for an answer
Saw a preacher man, homemade sign
He´s casting stones at the sick and the poor and the blind
Can´t even see that he is the one who needs saving

Send us a saint
Some truth in the wind
If it all has to end
I´ll never want to lose this feeling
A lover of love
If there´s heaven above
I´ll never want to lose this feeling
Beautiful girls
Hurts me the most to say
I´ll never want to lose this feeling
Lose this feeling

Baby, I will never ever leave you behind
Time is rushing in and running out
Someday I will learn to take it all in stride
But tomorrow has already passed us by

Send us a saint
Some truth in the wind
If it all has to end
I´ll never want to lose this feeling
A lover of love
If there´s heaven above
I´ll never want to lose this feeling
Beautiful girls
Hurts me the most to say
I´ll never want to lose this feeling
Lose this feeling
