Waxwing - Place Called Houston lyrics

Its a long way back from nothing But that's just where we're coming from A place called Houston on the map I can remember when He picked us up just like water You have to keep on drinking to go on living To keep on living - Sometimes I wasn't thirsty at all The day you realize that you already have Everything that you ever wanted, you'll know If a man can love enough he can save a million lives And maybe his own If a man can love enough to give up his whole world What he will receive in return will be so much more Some lessons must be taught With the blood and sweat of other men And now that I have seen the fight that you've fought Its my day to be that man And I hope I may fight this as well
