Testo A Hundred Challenging Things A Boy Can Do - Darren Hayes
Testo della canzone A Hundred Challenging Things A Boy Can Do (Darren Hayes), tratta dall'album This Delicate Thing We've Made
It was a cold town
He spent his whole life in a hole in the ground
Smashing pieces of earth
He never really saw the sky
It was a hard life
But little black rocks make televisions work
And put food on the table
Until the unions cast him aside
Now there's a hundred challenging things a boy can do
And you've waved goodbye and held
More tears in than anyone ever should
And all my sorrows pale to insignificance
That's why I love you
She was in a strange land
She taught herself to read from doing crosswords and hiding her accent
She cast her dreams aside
She had a spark in her eye
She never saw her son on his wedding day
Or how cherry blossoms had fallen down from the sky
Now there's a hundred challenging things a boy can do
And you've waved goodbye and held
More tears in than anyone ever should
And all my sorrows pale to insignificance
That's why I love you
No coal mines, no, not a trace
Now shopping malls take their place
No picket lines
The sacrifice, dreams overrun
Hopes for a future for her son in Allerton
And there's a hundred challenging things a boy can do
And you've waved goodbye and held
More tears in than anyone ever should
All my sorrows pale into insignificance
That's why she loves you
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
