Jamie's Elsewhere - A Slave A Son Lyrics
When I continued to run away,What kept me in your hand.Did you ever think your flock would stray,Or that they wouldn't understandWhen you said, "wait here,'Til I returnWith your brother that was lostTo the ways of the world"It was your love that said"You're no longer a slave,But a son"It was your love that said"You're no longer a slave,But a son"But a sonCatch me in your armsLike stars in the eyes of telescopes,And once there I rest,Never let me go. No,Never let me goWhat could I learnBy fighting the fire with matches and gasoline.Oh how cruelAnd melodramatic are we,For trying to make senseTo make sense of all of this.When I hear you callingI swear! I swear! I swear I'll run to you!Just don't let me fall back through the clouds.(Through the clouds)Catch me in your armsLike the stars you hold in your hand.
