Younger Years - The Milk Carton Kids (牛奶盒小孩)[00:00:00]
Lyricist:Joey Ryan/Kenneth Pattengale[00:00:09]
Above the plains of Omaha[00:00:18]
I think of all the sufferin' I saw[00:00:20]
The soakin' of the pavement[00:00:27]
Sprawled upon a land without a law[00:00:29]
Everythin' I loved[00:00:34]
Everythin' I found what I hoped for[00:00:36]
Frightened and surrounded[00:00:43]
Who else is there to turn to anymore[00:00:45]
Oh I held out my arms[00:00:48]
Oh I held out my arms[00:00:52]
Held out my arms[00:00:54]
Ohhhhh[00:01:01]
There was a time I spoke the truth[00:01:08]
But my younger years were wasted on my youth[00:01:10]
Somewhere I awakened[00:01:17]
With a crack to a poundin' on the roof[00:01:19]
Sure I heard the sound[00:01:24]
As evidence or better yet as proof[00:01:26]
I was naked as the day I was born[00:01:33]
'Neath the fullness of the moon[00:01:36]
Oh I held out my arms[00:01:39]
Oh I held out my arms[00:01:42]
Held out my arms[00:01:45]
Ohhhhh[00:01:51]
Far away I hear singin'[00:01:59]
Far away a song[00:02:07]
The blinding light of morning came[00:02:44]
Flooding through the window like a friend[00:02:46]
Like a wild revelation[00:02:52]
Like a shining invitation to attend[00:02:55]
Spoken as a prayer[00:02:59]
Unbroken by despair I make amends[00:03:01]
The love inside our hearts[00:03:08]
Is the only kind of savior we've been sent[00:03:10]
Oh I held out my arms[00:03:14]
Oh I held out my arms[00:03:17]
Held out my arms[00:03:20]
Ohhhhhh[00:03:26]
