Change - Big Country

All the rain came down

on a cold new town

as he carried you away

from your fathers 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

ohh lord, where did the feeling go

ohh lord, i never felt so low

Now the skirts hang so heavy around your head

but you never knew you were young

because you played chance with a lifetimes romance

and the price was far too long
