Patti Smith - Whirl Away Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Hello friend Ive come a-calling
  • Passively stationed
  • Active patrol
  • Sliding in at high noon like some reluctant sheriff
  • Not want to get involved in it all
  • Who stands guard for each other
  • Why must we guard anything at all
  • Anything at all
  • From the earths four corners the people are calling
  • Forming equations but the questions are hard
  • All men are brothers killing each other
  • And mother earth is wringing in wonder
  • Who stands guard for each other
  • Why must we guard anything at all
  • Anything at all
  • Whirl away now x3
  • Whirl away
  • Theres a cross on the road
  • Theres a great mill turning
  • Some seeking answers
  • Some born to dancers
  • You can hold on the blade and turn around forever
  • Be flung into space into another kind of grace
  • Who stands guard for each other
  • Why must we guard anything at all
  • Anything at all
  • Whirl away now x3
  • Whirl away
  • Whirl away now x3
  • Whirl away
  • [? ]
  • Some giveth their hand
  • Some giveth their land
  • Some giveth their life
  • You lay in the fields of grain
  • The staff of life all around you
  • But yet you, you will cut someone down for their possessions
  • Some material thing
  • And our children are being blown away like wishes in the wind
  • For the sake of their coat
  • Or the colors of their coat
  • Or the color of their skin
  • Or the name on their shoes
  • And the mother cries why they taken my son?
  • And the father wonders are they taking my boy?
  • He extended his hand
  • He gave them his land
  • He gave them his bread
  • He gave them his heart
  • Said hello friend
  • Hello friend x4
