The manners of the heart
We watched them grow
Did we write everlasting love
In the Hollywood snow
The ribbons and the bows
Wrapped us with gold
Such pressure heaven knows
As the fairy tale folds
Who heals the broken ones
When love has gone
You're not the only ones
In an older time when the world was small
When good men were standing
Reaching out for mother love
When the ties of blood would cheer the faintest heart
Never thought I'd see
You fallin' away from me
Beneath the darker sky
The stars are such a mess
Can you forward my good-byes
To some new address
Who heals the broken ones
When love has gone
You're not the only ones
In an older time when the world was small
When good men were standing
Reaching out for mother love
When the ties of blood would cheer the faintest heart
Never thought I'd see
You fallin' away from me
You can't turn back time
We're stranded here
Leave the future behind
You're not the only ones
In an older time when the world was small
When good men were standing
Reaching out for mother love
When the ties of blood would cheer the faintest heart
Never thought I'd see
You fallin' away from me
