From The Back Of A Broken Dream

As your soul drifts on the plate To the floor where she is standing Rising by the fire From the torch you were burning Many years but many tears And many more will soon be arriving But I drink this final drop To enter your front door [Chorus] Gone are the days When I poured from the rain Where once once marched a man Going down life's drain Oh in time in time you will see Just what you mean to me For I have met an angel clip my wings Come back young volunteer For your war now it is over Lay down your blackened gun Not another bad word spoken Come tell of all you've seen To the soul you're no longer killing And rest your weary voice The last battle song has cried [Chorus] Oh an angel clipped my wings From the back of a broken dream So they'll probably never break my fall again For I return to sing this tune From the back of a broken dream Time wont hurry back Time wont stall Time to forget the past Brush the cobwebs from the wall Oh for I survived to sing this tune From the back of a broken dream For an angel clipped my wings From the back of a broken dream So they'll probably never break my fall again For I return to sing this tune From the back of a broken dream For I return to sing this tune From the back of a broken dream --- From the Back of a Broken Dream - Flogging Molly
