"Lament For The Numb" lyrics
Dave Dobbyn & The Stone People Lyrics
"Lament For The Numb"
I found no peace
Lived like a shy fearful child
I couldn't feel a thing
Unless it was suffered gladly
Somehow for atonement
An ever nameless dread
And it's not like I lived it
It's like I read about it
In someone else's book
And I know this is foolish
But it etches in - to the fibre of your heart
Hold it right there I'm gonna show you something pure
And I could always have stayed there
Never to have played my hand
The Lament for the Numb
The battle memory remains here
Only to be fought and won
The Lament for the Numb
And now the journey repays me
Lose all the baggage for one
The Lament for the Numb
The Lament for the Numb
And now she breathes on me
And I'm so full of fire
To burn a trail ahead
If this is just a moment
It's alright I cupped my hands
Forever round your heart
If this is what it feels like
Forever round your heart
Hold it right there I'm gonna show you something pure
And you could always remain here
If only to walk by my side - The Lament for the Numb
And you will always remain here
Never to suffer my pride
The Lament for the Numb
And there is so much to gain here
Lose all the demons and lies
The Lament for the Numb
And with a love running deeper I won't tag along for the ride
The Lament for the Numb
The Lament for the Numb
It's not like I lived it
The Lament for the Numb
It's just like I lived it

Bryan Adams - "Summer Of '69" I got my first real six-string
Bought it at the five-and-dime
Played it 'til my fingers bled
Was the summer of '69
Me and some guys from school
Had a band and we tried real hard.

Slim Dusty - "Duncan" I love to have a beer with Duncan
I love to have a beer with Dunc
We drink in moderation
And we never ever ever get rollin' drunk
We drink at the Town and Country
Where the atmosphere is great

Little River Band - "Help Is On Its Way" Why are you in so much hurry
Is it really worth the worry
Look around
Then slow down
What's it like inside the bubble
Does your head ever give you trouble
It's no sin
Trade it in
Hang on, help is...
Ike & Tina Turner - "Nutbush City Limits" A church house gin house
A school house outhouse
On Highway Number Nineteen
The people keep the city clean
They call it Nutbush
Oh Nutbush
Call it Nutbush city limits
Twentyfive was the speed limit...
Dragon - "Young Years" Broken cars, old guitars
Waiting here for the time to pass
Time takes it's toll and it took it fast
Secret meetings at the rivers bend
Simple days when I called you friend
Came a time we went...
