The Hands of a Teacher — текст песни (Live)

Optimism,

Optimism perished from the face of my earth

And then you came along, came along and swept me away,

She kissed me, as we stood on the edge,

The night made the day as we made for the bridge

It started raining hard, and I saw we may live to regret



No I never really understood

No I never really understood why,

Because Ive never been given,

Never been given two tries,

No I never really understood,

Understood why...



Pessimism,

Pessimism perished from the face of my earth,

And then you came along, came along and swept me away,

Did you miss me? did you miss me as we walked

Through the pain, attached the chain so you could

See me again

I started asking myself, did I teach you right?



No I never really understood

No I never really understood why,

Because Ive never been given,

Never been given two tries,

No I never really understood,

Understood why...



Understood why...

You came to me, you broke the bonds,

You set me free

And then the love that you promised me

Came a tumblin tumblin tumblin down

Into my hands...



No I never really understood

No I never really understood why,

Because Ive never been given,

Never been given two tries,

No I never really understood,

Understood why...



So teacher teach me...
