Saints Preserve Us
another cold evening another septembe
i'm tired because things could be bette
too many people bear their burden
carrying crosses hammering nail
wasting lifetime waiting to see yo
but nothing disturbs yo
disturbs yo
saints preserve us, then desert u
saints preserve us, then they desert u
but if these tears you shed were what they seeme
what did you expect to see
this landscape's cold and less than forgivin
there's no hope of forgettin
staring, you smil
thinking of you all of the whil
saints preserve us, then desert u
saints preserve us, then desert u
so when i get away i'll send my regard
thinking i should tell yo
that i would much rather say that i don't miss yo
i can't and won't forgive yo
all i'm doing, all that i'm doin
is trying to forget yo
to forget yo
oh but i won't forget yo
saints preserve us, then desert u
saints preserve us, then desert u
all these saints they preserve u
only to desert u
oh they desert u
