I'm a simple man with a simple name<br>
+
There's no living in my life anymore<br>
-
From this soil my people came<br>
+
The seas have gone dry<br>
-
In this soil remain oh yeah oh yeah<br>
+
And the rain's stopped falling<br>
-
He made us our shoes<br>
+
Please don't you cry any more<br>
-
And we trod soft on the land<br>
+
Can't you see<br>
-
But the immigrant built roads<br>
+
Listen to the breeze<br>
-
On our blood and sand oh yeah<br>
+
Whisper to me please<br>
-
<br>
+
Don't send me to the path of nevermore<br>
-
White man White man<br>
+
-
Don't you see the light behind your blackened skies<br>
+
-
White man White man<br>
+
-
You took away the sight to blind my simple eyes<br>
+
-
White man White man<br>
+
-
Where you gonna hide from the hell you've made<br>
+
-
<br>
+
-
Oh the red man knows wars<br>
+
-
With his hands and his knives<br>
+
-
On the Bible you swore<br>
+
-
Fought your battle with lies oh yeah<br>
+
-
Leave my body in shame<br>
+
-
Leave my soul in disgrace<br>
+
-
But by every god's name<br>
+
-
Say a prayer for your race oh yeah<br>
+
-
<br>
+
-
White man White man<br>
+
-
Our country was green and all our rivers wide<br>
+
-
White man White man<br>
+
-
You came with a gun and soon our children died<br>
+
-
White man White man<br>
+
-
Don't you give a light for the blood you've shed?<br>
+
-
<br>
+
-
White man White man<br>
+
-
White man<br>
+
-
White man White man<br>
+
-
For you battled with lies<br>
+
-
White man White man<br>
+
-
Still lies<br>
+
-
White man White man<br>
+
-
Say you look around every skin and bone again<br>
+
<br>
<br>
-
What is left of your dream?<br>
+
Even the valley's below<br>
-
Just the words on your stone<br>
+
Where the rays of the sun<br>
-
A man who learned how to teach<br>
+
Were so warm and tender<br>
-
Then forgot how to learn<br>
+
Now haven't anything to grow<br>
-
Oh yeah
+
Can't you see?<br>
 +
Why did you have to leave me? (nevermore)<br>
 +
Why did you deceive me? (nevermore)<br>
 +
You sent me to the path of nevermore<br>
 +
When you say you didn't love me anymore<br>
 +
Ah ah nevermore nevermore

Lyrics

There's no living in my life anymore
The seas have gone dry
And the rain's stopped falling
Please don't you cry any more
Can't you see
Listen to the breeze
Whisper to me please
Don't send me to the path of nevermore

Even the valley's below
Where the rays of the sun
Were so warm and tender
Now haven't anything to grow
Can't you see?
Why did you have to leave me? (nevermore)
Why did you deceive me? (nevermore)
You sent me to the path of nevermore
When you say you didn't love me anymore
Ah ah nevermore nevermore
