The Villages I Have Known My Entire Life

Well there were times
when i would wake you up
And distract you
I'd carry you (well?) into the cold
And i would drive you
And i'd talk of the stars
And the fields we passed
(And all?) that you about to sleep
So i could hope
I drove through the villages that i have known
my entire life
And you all (...) to others
Who (might?) would not know
(...)
They did the best they could
To save you, not to hurt you
And watching at it (...)
And watching at it (...)
Still visible today i'd kept the tears (at pace?)
They hurt you to save you
I pointed the skies and searched through the heavens
for a particular star
It's gift to our souls
It's a moment of distraction
And a sense of where we were
To remove you and the craziness
The craziness of it all
And i did my best but i was not trained for this
And i promise that i did my best
but i was not trained for this
And we did shout
And we did cry, you and i
And one another thought we (...) where it was
And we did shout
And we did cry, you and i
And one another thought we (...) where it was
And i would promise that we would escape, you and i
But i was not sure of this
Yes, i would promise that we would escape, you and i
But i was not sure of this
And i do not miss a second of those days
But the only times i feel that my blues are in danger
Are when i'm drunk waiting a tube train at night
And the thought of what you've been through
(Is what?) keeps me alive
To save you
Not to hurt you
To hurt you to save you...
Well there were times when i would wake you up and distract you
