lyrics

POCKETFUL OF DUST

I WANNA KNOW WHEN DID YOU DECIDE
TO TAKE IT ALL DOWN TO WHERE THE SHADOWS HIDE
DIDN'T YOU BELIEVE ME WHEN I SAID DON'T LEAVE ME
NOW LIFE GOES ON WITHOUT YOU AND THERE'S NOTHIN' I CAN DO
TELL ME WHY

WHY DID YOU LET IT DIE
WHEN WAS OUR LAST GOODBYE
DIDN'T WANNA SEE YOU CASHIN' IN YOUR DREAMS
FOR A POCKETFUL OF DUST AND A BROKEN MEMORY
TELL ME WHY

WHERE WAS THE TRUTH YOU HOPED TO FIND
I PRAY IF YOU DO THE TRUTH IS KIND TO YOU
I KNOW IT'S HARD TO HOLD ON WITH A HEART OF GOLD
IN A WORLD SO FULL OF HATE AND DEMONS AT YOUR GATE
TELL MY WHY

DIDN'T WANNA SEE YOU CASHIN' IN YOUR DREAMS
FOR A POCKETFUL OF DUST AND A BROKEN MEMORY
TELL ME WHY
WHY DID YOU LET IT DIE
YOU COULDA TRIED JUST ONE MORE TIME
