You were born on a windswept morn   Under the summer sky   They moved you past all the kids in your class   You never even asked why      Oh the golden days   Lying awake at night   Hearing the ocean spray   Nobody counting the lives you've cost   No mothers crying for sons they've lost   Nobody watching at all   Just you and the road as it curves and bends   Doing little jobs for your daddy's friends      One day when the world is right   We're going to walk in the bright blue light   When your kingdom's gone   And your friends moved on   We're going to watch you fall   We're going to watch it all   One fine day      Stuck your hand in a desert land   Hoping that liberty shines   Counting the sins of the ones you put in   Sweeping the roads for mines      It's funny how it all works out   You sleep sound at night   Me I have my doubts   I see a people all tired and torn   Moving along like a gathering storm   You see nothing at all   Walking around with your head in the clouds   Praying to God that it all works out      One day when the world is right   We're going to walk in the bright blue light   When your kingdom's gone   And your friends moved on   We're going to watch you fall   We're going to watch it all   One fine day      Nobody waves good-bye   When you sneak away one night   Under the blood red sky   Leaving a town where hope's gone cold   A little more helpless than it was before   Listen close you'll hear   A cry comes back from the burning sand   One more kid in a broken land      One day when the world is right   We're going to walk in the bright blue light   When your kingdom's gone   And your friends moved on   We're going to watch you fall      One day when the world is right   We're going to walk in the broad daylight   When your kingdom's gone   And your friends moved on   We're going to watch you fall   We're going to watch you crawl   One fine day
