《From Your Knees(LP版)》歌词

[00:00:15] He tore down the work of 17 years

[00:00:20] Brick by brick and stone by stone

[00:00:26] No hammer was swingin’ cause cheatin’ and drinkin’

[00:00:32] Don’t need no help wreckin’ a home

[00:00:37] Ah, but when he came back through the dust and the rubble

[00:00:43] Of what he had once called his life

[00:00:49] He dropped to his knees in sheer disbelief

[00:00:55] Of the total destruction inside

[00:01:00] There were empty closets and empty drawers

[00:01:06] And a tearstained note on the kitchen floor

[00:01:12] And burning memories in the fireplace

[00:01:23] He waited too late to say he was wrong

[00:01:29] His house was still standing but his home was gone

[00:01:34] Brother, you would not believe

[00:01:42] What you can see from your knees

[00:02:01] Right then and there in an old sinner’s prayer

[00:02:07] He told things he’d kept in the dark

[00:02:12] There was no use in lying cause the man who was listening

[00:02:18] Could see every room in his heart

[00:02:23] Ah, he took empty whisky bottles, little black book and all

[00:02:29] To the fire she left on the grate

[00:02:35] Ah, sometimes a man will change on his own

[00:02:40] But sometimes I tell you it takes

[00:02:46] Empty closets and empty drawers

[00:02:51] And a tearful confession on the kitchen floor

[00:02:57] And burning memories in the fireplace

[00:03:08] He waited to late to say he was wrong

[00:03:14] His house was still standing he’d fight for his home

[00:03:19] Brother, you would not believe,

[00:03:26] Oh you would not believe

[00:03:34] What you can see from your knees
