lyrics

OH MY DARLINGS

The energy is gone - it's over
We pulled the final plug the other night
Hangin' by a thread for light years
Eventually we gave into the fight
Where are the dreams that we planted?
None of the seeds survived
All of us left broken hearted
When the heat wave arrived

Memories up flames, - it's crazy
And the family ties have all been broke
Try to filter out the pain, - it's endless
We blew away the only hope we had
So many friends have departed
I can only guess where they have gone
So many things that were started
Will they ever be done?

Oh my darlings
Wait until the sun can shine again once more
Oh my darlings
Treasures await behind that old back door

I wish that I could wake up -
And suddenly realize it's been a dream
Find us like the first time
x'ing out the negativity's
I still don't regard any moment
As wasted time in the lives of fools
I still believe there's a reason
For the crazy things we do

Oh my darlings
Wait until the sun can shine again once more
Oh my darlings
Treasures await behind that old back door
Oh my darlings - Oh my darlings
Oh my darlings

Well equal rights and rocket ships
and holidays and paintings,
Promises of movie deals and waiting around...
In the dark remains of faith I sit and wonder
Where would we be now?
If everybody cared...
If everybody shared the common light
