作曲：Bob Calvert

I bought the paper yesterday

And I saw the obituary

And I read of how you died in pain

Well I just couldn't understand it

If I could of changed that

Then Lord knows I'd do it now

But there is no going back

And what's done is done forever

But you were always chained

And shackled by the dirt

Of every small town institution

And every big town flirt

And I think of what you might have been

A man of such great promise

Oh but you seem to forget the dream

And the more you saw you hated

But let's not talk of blame

For what is only natural

Like a moth going to a flame

You had a dangerous passion

But you were always chained

And shackled by the dirt

Of every small town institution

And every big town flirt

All the things that you might have been

But who am I to say

Still I wonder

If it's the cold earth you prefer to lay

If it's the cold earth you prefer to stay
