Lullaby For The Taken

bombs are dropping, smoke fills the air

i wanna duck and cover but i've gotta stay out here

'cause i know myself and if i hole up in my room

i'll be consumed by the doom and the gloom

so i called john 'cause i know he knows sorrow

he said "i'll be in the city tomorrow"

so i go down and i watch him sing

and the way he sings sends a chill right through me, yeah

and now there's a mountain goat

precariously balanced on the frog stuck in my throat

it says "sometimes whispering's okay,

but maybe you'd feel better if you screamed today"

the lady took the baby

i know she loves the baby

but the baby has a daddy

and his daddy loves him too

how could she take the baby?

maybe she's gone crazy

she won't share

it's not fair

there's nothing i can do

the lady took the baby

i know she loves the baby

but the baby has a daddy

and his daddy loves him too

how could she take the baby?

maybe she's gone crazy

she won't share

it's not fair

there's nothing i can do

tuesday night grandma curled up in my bed

by wednesday morning my grandma was dead

i was in charlotte, i took the bus home

her shoes, watch, and teeth were still in my room

and as i lay me down to sleep i felt her spirit rise up through me

she said "i got to live a long eighty six years, dry your tears.

i know it's hard but please let go so i can meet your grandpa in the undertow

chin up girl, you've got to be strong, and know when you're singing i'm singing along"

the lady took the baby

i know she loves the baby

but the baby has a daddy

and his daddy loves him too

how could she take the baby?

maybe she's gone crazy

she won't share

it's not fair

there's nothing i can do

the lady took the baby

i know she loves the baby

but the baby has a daddy

and his daddy loves him too

how could she take the baby?

maybe she's gone crazy

she won't share

it's not fair

there's nothing i can do

little bitty baby so far away

we hope that you can come home soon

when we're not together, now or ever

always remember i love you

little bitty baby so far away

we hope that you can come home soon

when we're not together, now or ever

always remember i love you

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
