14th Street lyrics

You`ve got my lost brother`s soul
My dear mother`s eyes
A brown horse`s mane
And my uncle`s name
You walked me down 14th Street
For the doctor to meet after thoughts of the grave
In the home of the brave and of the weak

But why`d you have to break all my heart
Couldn`t you have saved a little bit of it?
Why`d you have to break all my heart?
Couldn`t you have saved a minor part?

I could have clipped and saved and planted in the garden
Damn you guess I`ll have to get a new one

I`d love to sit and watch you drink
With the reins to the world, gripping a smoke
Vaguely missing link
Don`t ever change you hungry little bashful hound
I got the sheep, poor little Bo Peep
Has lost and filed for grounds.

But why`d you have to break all my heart
I could have ripped apart and thrown into the river
Wonder if there`s hearts that will deliver

Don`t ever change, don`t ever worry
Because I`m coming back home tomorrow
To 14th Street where I won`t hurry
And where I`ll learn how to save, not just borrow
And they`ll be rainbows and we will finally know
