Plankeye — Commonwealth lyrics

Lyrics

He sits and hears
The story of his life
His tears fall down like rain
As he begins to realize
And I wish that I was near to you
And I wish that I was there again
Life is more than gold
Friends are more than old
Memories are the commonwealth
Thinking about the only Son
That He may have forgotten
You know you were the only one
Putting yourself in the place of that man
And I wish that I was near to you
And I wish that I was there again
Life is more than gold
Friends are more than old
Memories
Life is more than gold
Friends are more than old
Memories are the commonwealth
Yeah
Thanking God as the time passes by
Another man does the same
He thinks about the reasons why
Maybe she was the one to blame
And I wish that I was near to you
And I wish that I was there again
Life is more than gold
Friends are more than old
Memories
Life is more than gold
Friends are more than old
Memories are the commonwealth
