Lyrics I Saw Nothing Good so I Left - Bragolin

We danced in different drums I guess,
Back when our days were written down.
In the east we walked along the highway and I smiled,
You told me stories about the other side of town.
Across the hall there was a man whose words did not suffice,
A smell of gas and plastic gloves,
And half forgotten lies.
We had so much to lose back when the walls turned red and blue.
It′s true you see some things you lose might just be gone for good.
We set fire to the preacher who was promising us hell.
I remember empty buildings and all the stories that you'd tell.
We held onto our banners and laughed until we cried,
Across the hall of the open door of the man that left at night.
We dance to different drums I guess you said that day in May and
You wished that you were overseas a hundred thousand miles away.
Years we wait,
Wait in a vain for a letter or a call.
But it never comes,
It never comes,
There′s no one there at all.
