Thief in your soul, thief in your soul
thief in your soul, thief in your soul
the love that I gave you
the love that I gave you
is nothing to the love you stole
Son
Son
As I toil with the frail pieces
of my two decade puzzle
I worry of waste
yet waste away
and the hands of the clock
beat loud in my mind
I'll dream of tomorrow
Yet greatly fear today
The slow fading hum
of my star spangled drum
dies out today
dies as she comes
the light burns so bright
I flip through the night
Son
Her cold hands touch my face
and tell me I'm alright
there'll be no peace for you my son
no rest for you tonight
and then she closed the door
and leave me all alone
Ma
where have you gone
Thief in your soul
Thief in your soul
the love that I gave you
is nothing to the love you stole
Son
