Toy Soldier lyrics

Unread post by jalapena » Tue Feb 07, 2006 1:45 am

Just a quick question...

...or two...

...is Dave's mother still alive? And if so at what year?? Based on the 6/21/96 lyrics, it doesn't sound like she was. It's probably common knowledge around here but I don't check this place a lot anymore....

...Also, if Dave took the time this could be an amazing song. This reminds me of a raw kind of #41, or the potential to be one anyways. Has it ever turned into an official song, the almanac says it was played in 96?




Oh yeah, here are the 6/21/96 lyrics:

So you ran
See you there
My, oh close, so
See you there in the corner
You laughed and said
And you sing, "won't you please come up braver than that day"
I pray won't you open me again

Oh so then, in the day
So when we were small
And I'd much space to me
And everyone not importance to me
And daddy he leave me on dead end detail
And sister she stole from me
By the bullets of an angry man
And then my mother stole from me
still I love you
still I've forgiven you

mother begin again

I begin again

I agree, but that Dave guy seems to have a good memory, so maybe its not quite dead yet

It's been almost 10 years since it's been played, and it was played, what? twice? I'd say dead. #34 it is not.
