How come only some get to see
All along the line
If that's what's to be
All we have is time
How come every game that you choose
Is a game you want to lose
How come Man's got it all inside
And can't look you in the eyes
They knock you down, push you around
They want you on the ground
How come you lose your pride
To keep them by your side
Wolves howl at my skies
Snakes fill my head with lies
And Man's got it all inside
And can't look you in the eyes
The sun, the moon, all the stars in the sky
They hang by strings hung by you and I
Don't tell the riverman
A priest is in demand
All I know
I love her so
Don't tell the riverman
A priest is in demand
All I know
I love her so
Give the girl I got grace
She loves in more ways
Than I can count
She don't doubt
