All the rain came down on a cold new town As he carried you away From your father's hand that always seemed like a fist Reaching out to make you pay
He came like a hero from the factory floor With the sun and moon as gifts But the only son you ever saw Were the two he left you with
Oh lord where did the feeling go Oh lord I never felt so low
Now the skirts hang so heavy around your head That you never knew you were young Because you played chance with a lifetime's romance And the price was far too long
Oh lord where did the feeling go Oh lord I never felt so low
