Album Draw The Line

Paroles de First Chance

Like a bird upon release
Through the atmosphere
Like a honking flock of geese
Winter drawing near

As the fabric comes unstitched
Hearts and minds and eyes bewitched
Standing, watching for the smoke to clear

First chance I get, I'm gone

Moses had his tablets, yeah
Noah had his ark
But all I got's a haystack needle
Stabbing in the dark

Anguished cries and old footfalls
Coming through these paper walls
Need some action, all you get is talk

First chance I get
I'm gone, I'm outta here
First chance I get
I'm gone, I'm outta here

Here's one for the boys back home Here's one for the fireside
Grinning groom, the blushing bride
Come and feast your eyes upon the hoax

First chance I get
I'm gone, I'm outta here
First chance I get
I'm gone, I'm outta here

Over Lake Superior
And the Arctic Sea
Through the dark interior
The stolen territory

I want it with the cream on top
One more lifetime swallowed up
He'll be back, yeah, just you wait and see

First chance I get
I'm gone, I'm outta here
First chance I get
I'm gone, I'm outta here

First chance, first chance
I'm outta here
First chance, first chance
I'm outta here

It's a long way back from where you are
It's a long way back from where you are
It's a long way back from where you are
It's a long, it's a long, it's a long
