Across The Border - Sparrows lyrics

rate me

Two days ago I found his number written on a card

And I started to remember my live at sparrows-yard

Under a flag of freedom of love and anarchy

But all these good old memories won' t bring the past to me

He played in a band, he never got out of breath

He missed no crazy thing, his life was like his death

We could not believe, why didn' t he come back

A preacher spoke of love and hope, we all were dressed in black

Was it the day, the sparrows flew away

Was it the day, we flew away

Was it the day, the sparrows flew away

Was it the day, we had to pay

A girl was going out with one of our floor

Until she felt in love with Rob, who smoked next door

Times were getting harder, I stood between the lines

The wheel of time was turning, we didn´t recognize.

From this day our common room got quite

No more peals of laughter were roaring through the night

A tear could have been love, a smile could have been hate

We were sitting in our rooms to wait on our fate

Was it the day...

The millers were here, had few crates of beer

None of Blyth Power used our shower

A Citizen Fish smoked a few spliffs

Then the letter was short by the land lord, no...

Was it the day...
