The Sounds - The Only Ones lyrics

rate me

<BR>

When I grew up It was different<br>

There was no violence or like other towns<br>

But when I came home from school that night<br>

I saw the cops were on the run<br>

There were kids on the wall reaching up to the sky<br>

Like a culture shock of joy<br>

It sent me into a strong fascination<br>

And what's been lost is back<br>

<br>

<i>[Chorus]</i><br>

'Cause we were the only ones<br>

Darling and me this time it's going down<br>

<br>

You know where I belong<br>

And you know it's time that we let go<br>

Been drifting so far away from home<br>

November came back and all was gone<br>

You know where I belong, my darling<br>

This time It's going down<br>

<br>

When December came I was older<br>

And snow was finally on the ground<br>

Soldiers lining up, cameras feeding the world<br>

With pictures that would mark my mind<br>

I heard this woman scream as she was begging for trust<br>

Then turning ghost-like behind the court<br>

A shotgun blast, as new years passed<br>

Oppression was on the run<br>

<br>

<i>[Chorus]</i><br>

<br>

They're Going Down<br>

<br>

You know where I belong<br>

And you know it's time that we let go<br>

Been drifting so far away from home<br>

November came back and all was gone<br>

You know where I belong, my darling<br>

It's going down<br>

<BR><BR>
