THE MAN WHO DIED HERE SAVED ME
Day 3 (2020). Lyrics by Dan Zlotnick
The man who died here saved me
A thousand years ago
A brand new life he gave me
Out in the wind’s his ghost
The bridge above the river I’d take my final breath
That’s when I heard my giver, Son, you best watch your step
Sorry but you don’t know me I’ve got nothing left
He said you’re not the only lonely heart bereft
I told you you don’t know, sir, just turn around and leave
So I took one step closer, that’s when he reached for me
The rocks beneath his soles fell to the river bed
His body swiftly followed
The wrong man was dead
These days I bring my sorrow
The replay in my head
I meant to kill tomorrow but killed the man instead
The man who died here saved me
A thousand years ago
A brand new life he gave me
Out in the wind’s his ghost
The man who died here saved me
A thousand years ago
A brand new life he gave me
Out in the wind’s his ghost
Out in the wind’s his ghost
Out in the wind’s his ghost
Out in the wind’s his ghost
