WOODEN DOVE - Fences

My light has gone, the world spun on

I threw myself away

Into a bag the army had

And died in its green shape

The drunks, your dog, a whirling log

These things that I won’t say

They all provide a darker side

These things, they keep me gray

Oh don’t you cry

We’re only alone for one life

Oh don’t you cry

We’re only alone for one life

I lost my love, my wooden dove

She broke then went away

She flew outside in white moonlight

That dove, she made me great

We have a child, she got my smile

She got most everything

I’d apologize for a missed life

If I just knew her name

Oh don’t you cry

We’re only alone for one life

Oh don’t you cry

We’re only alone for one life

Oh don’t you cry

We’re only alone for one life

Oh don’t you cry

We’re only alone for one life

We’re only alone for one life

We’re only alone
