lyrics

Hey there father, its so good to see you again
Its going breezy and the clouds don't end
The fans of my friends, and friends I've never made
Are all out there somewhere in this world
But as you and I were parted I pray I may return
And I hope that I make it before the rain
I worked my fingers till they bled and minded what I said
But the dreams I had was never meant to be

You always said you'd meet me here
and it's as I always feared
This is no place for a man to stand

I gave my life I gave my money to Pauline
And here she's living by the sea
Although she loved me well
I damned her life to hell
I wish I could have been a better man

You always said you'd meet me here
And its as I always feared
This is no place for a man to stand
