All My Possessions

One more corner to turn
One more lesson to learn
One more gentle word would be the last I ever heard
But ain't no one gonna give that to me now

Then at once I'm taken outside
All at once I hear you say goodnight
And just once will you allow me to stay
You shake your head and say you've got to get back to your fight

I have all my possessions inside
And I run though the streets of my life
And I cannot tell my dreams from the memories I believe
But all and all it keeps me alive

No more corners to turn
No more lessons to learn
One last night of sleep and then I am my brother's to keep
But it makes no difference to them now

Then at once I'm taken outside
All at once I hear you say goodnight
And just once will you allow me to stay
You shake your head and say you've got to get back to your fight

I have all my possessions inside
And I run though the streets of my life
And I cannot tell my dreams from the memories I believe
But all and all it keeps me alive

All my life it comes around
I see the boys just like they were before
And you're there too
Sitting on the stoop and waving

All my life it comes around
I see us all just like we were before
And you're there too
Without another soul to save

I have all my possessions inside
And I run though the streets of my life
And I cannot tell my dreams from the memories I believe
But all and all it keeps me alive

I have all my possessions inside
And I run though the streets of my life
And I cannot tell my dreams from the memories I believe
But all and all it keeps me alive
