Marc Cohn - Rest for The Weary lyrics

Your rating:

                     

 My father was a working man

But his work was never done

He stood behind a counter

And he smiled at everyone

He bought himself a business

Worked seven days a week

Took a holiday for christmas

Then he fell asleep beside the tree

But one day



One day

There's love for the lonely

One day

They walk in the sun

One day

Rest for the weary

Rest for the weary ones



Now my mother stood beside him

She did what she could do

But if you look at some old photograph

She looks tired too

I hope there was some laughter

'cause I know there were some tears

Now all I can say is I pray to god

That after all those years

After all those years

That one day



One day

There's love for the lonely

One day

They walk in the sun

One day

Rest for the weary

Rest for the weary ones



Now I'm just another traveller

On another winding road

I'm trying to walk some kind of line

I'm trying to pull some kind of load

Now sometimes I move real easy

Sometimes I can't catch my breath

Sometimes I see my father's footsteps

And man it scares me half to death

But one day



One day

There's love for the lonely

One day

We walk in the sun

One day

Rest for the weary

Rest for the weary ones
