David Berkeley - Throw Down a Line Lyrics




Just before the dawn,
Half a world asleep,
I heard the news,
Heard the newsman weep.

When the earth is quiet,
Cnd autumn's just begun,
It's hard to find a fault in anyone.

But now it's come to this.
You got to wonder why,
From a hotel room
Beneath the desert sky.

Throw down a line, but hold on to the end.

Cnd so the days go by,
Nothing seems to change.
Like nothing can be done
When nothing is to blame.

Then on the lover's day
While the palm trees bend,
Put your books away
Cause here it comes again.
Throw down a line, but hold on to the end.
Turn back the time, let us start again.

How have we managed to fall so far?
Don't try to tell me it's who we are.
What kind of freedom would leave such scars?
Oh, lay down your arms.

Heaven help the child
Who in her darkest hour
She don't back down
From the fools in power.

Cnd you're waking now.
Cnd the sky begins to light.
We got another try.
We got to make it right.

Let's throw down a line and hold on to the end.
I know it's time, time to start again
Throw down a line, but hold on to the end.
