Child of fear, child of anger
|
Traveler on the open road
|
An ancient car she bought
|
with money that he gave her
|
When he died, oh oh
|
|
That was the only thing he ever gave her
|
Except for failing eyes and curly hair
|
And I did not believe that
|
I could ever really save her
|
Though I tried, I swear
|
|
And if I traveled fifty lifetimes
|
Through every country of the world
|
I don't believe I'd ever find myself
|
A more enchanting girl
|
A more enchanting girl
|
|
We made it through the wintertime unscathed
|
Talked all night and slept away the days
|
And though she had no faith to speak of
|
Her silhouette looked saved
|
Fading light of day
|
|
And if I traveled fifty lifetimes¡¦
|
|
Saw her by the roadside,
|
we went for a slow ride
|
As I awoke from sleeping
|
I knew that she was gone
|
|
Well they say what does not kill you
|
makes you stronger
|
Let's just say she gave me lots of strength
|
She offered love as fleeting as a lifetime
|
only longer
|
In a way, I said...
|
|
If I traveled fifty lifetimes...
