Flogging Molly - On The Back Of A Broken Dream lyrics

rate me

As your soul drifts on the plate

To the floor where she is standing

Rising by the fire

From the torch you were burning

Many years but many tears

And many more will soon be arriving

But i drink this final drop

To enter your front door

Gone are the days

When I poured from the rain

Where once once marched a man

Going down life's drain

Oh in time in time you will see

Just what you mean to me

For I have met an angel clip my wings

Come back young volunteer

For your war now it is over

Lay down your blackened gun

Not another bad word spoken

Come tell of all you've seen

To the soul you're no longer killing

And rest your weary voice

The last battle song has cried

Gone are the days

When I poured from the rain

Where once once marched a man

Going down life's drain

Oh in time in time you will see

Just what you mean to me

For I have met an angel clip my wings

Oh an angel clipped my wings

From the back of a broken dream

So they'll probably never break my fall again

For i return to sing this tune

From the back of a broken dream

Time wont hurry back

Time wont stall

Time to forget the past

Brush the cobwebs from the wall

Oh for I survived to sing this tune

From the back of a broken dream

For an angel clipped my wings

From the back of a broken dream

So they'll probably never break my fall again

For i return to sing this tune

From the back of a broken dream

For i return to sing this tune

From the back of a broken dream
