Lyrics

Mother said: "don't believe in dreams"
She said: "life's too hard to swing against the streams"
Then she gave you a kiss and turned out the light
But you couldn't sleep at all
And you made your decision
To hold on tight -
To keep your heart
Wide open - just to play your part and fight
And never take this small forever
- some give all

The mysterious boot hill grave inscription
"We don't need no one"

One for the dreamer in a world made of stone
Two for the stranger who's left without hope and alone
Call me a drifter with a faith bound to die
Will you still betray - cover each day with a lie?

And time - time will tell
Time will show you a reason why
Too late to try
Just fate - goodbye

The mysterious boot hill grave inscription
"We don't need no one"
- some give all when all give some
And when the world's just a comedy
Some will leave and some will fall
Cause when I do give something
- some give all

Do you remember the fears and the lights
Do you believe in the silence and dark sleepless nights
Once a companion - always a fool
Over, done, finished and out and again just the rule
And time - time will tell
Time will show you a reason why
Too late to try
Just fate - goodbye

The mysterious boot hill grave inscription
"We don't need no one"
- some give all when all give some
And when the world's just a comedy
Some will leave and some will fall
Cause when I do give something
- some give all
......And everybody calls your name
