lyrics

Over and over
Look over your shoulder
At all of the soot on the ground
Oh, it's been falling down
From the moment you got into town
You're older, you're bolder
You've never been colder
You come in here looking for more
And oh, you take all you can fit in your arms
When you walk out the door

You didn't even see it coming
You know you should've seen it coming
You might have even seen it coming
You could have would have seen it all
Could have would have had it all

Father, oh father
Your sons and your daughters
They'll learn how to stand on their own
Oh, when a slap on the left
And a kick to the right's all they know
Daily, or daily
But then again maybe
You'll learn how to love what you have
Oh, if you'll find there is more to the scheme
Than to give or to grab

You didn't even see it coming
You know you should've seen it coming
You might have even seen it coming
You could have would have seen it all
Couldn't wouldn't shouldn't have to crawl

So shoulder, grow older
Don't ever grow colder
And time will bring love to your side
Oh, if you choose to refuse to sit tight while she passes you by
And maybe, just maybe
She'll take you there safely
No more of your running around
And over and over by nightfall
You'll dance in the soot on the ground

You didn't even see it coming
You know you should've seen it coming
You might have even seen it coming
You could have would have seen it all
Could have would have had it all
