Gousters - Only Eighteen songtekst
Je score:
We was just kids...gettin a hold on...gettin a load on..searchin our dreams.We were just laughin...at all that had happened...in our young short lives...not even begun. It was the Sixties...no where to mix these...troubled emotions that got me in jail. No family to own me...I found myself lonely..got myself drafted for being eighteen... I heard the judge sentence.. it's Nam or detention To the court I did mention... I was only eighteen. In the time that I spent there..I never could dare share..the horror inside me with the boys that I knew. And when I did come back...There was only the dumb lack of what I had seen there that had made me unreal. Over and over, I'm livin it over..the loss and the horror of what I have seen. only eighteen ( repeat ) I've nurtured an illness....as deep as the stillness that lives in my dreams or so it may seem. Deep in my night sweat...I never can forget the lives that were forfeit... for being eighteen...only eighteen (r)
