Michael Tomlinson - Living Here lyrics

All the things we really miss

We tell our stories one by one

About the things we used to do

When the world was bright and new

Seems to me it's come undone

My daddy used to drive me out

A little ways outside of town

To hear the coyotes' lonesome howl

But we don't hear them anymore

For the traffic's steady roar

And we're the ones so lonesome now

I'm tired of foolish games

They just drive me insand

Let's shake this crazy world

And make us all aware

We've got a little time

But we just need to care

Remember we've got children living here

Now, deep inside I'm still a kid

I think everybody is

And we don't really understand

They say in time all things will heal

but I wonder if they will

If we don't rise and take our stand

I'm tired of foolish games

They just drive me insane

Let's shake this crazy world

And make us all aware

We've got a little time

But we just need to care

Remember we've got children living here

Here we are in the old design

Can we all wake up

From our sleep in time

There are questions here

In our babies eyes

Can we give them hope

In the glimmer of a winter sunrise
