[00:09.49]My lover left me, she left me too soon.
[00:14.78]I shouldn't blame her, for the state of my room.
[00:19.05]I started stumbling, chasing the bells.
[00:23.20]The metal straps upon my knees made this sound when I fell.
[00:27.82]You heard those words from your peers, I was just your volunteer.
[00:44.05]We love uncle Georgie, uncle Georgie's our friend.
[00:48.62]He spends his life fishing, washes dishes weekends.
[00:53.02]And I tried to say something sincere, sign me up I'll volunteer.
[01:09.70]My Father left us, he left us too soon.
[01:14.19]I thought he's say something, but he waltzed from the room.
[01:19.08]All I remember is my hands at my sides.
[01:23.68]The face of a woman who once was his bride.
[01:28.01][01:39.53]All that he left her was tears, and a couple of lonely volunteers.
[02:00.17]We look for sister Mary, sister Mary the pale.
[02:05.03]She holds her head sometimes and walks close to the rail.
[02:09.18]She sings on Sunday, stands in the stairs.
[02:14.52]Haunts me at night time when I've forgotten my prayers.
[02:18.75]We don't see much of her here, that winter-weary volunteer.
[02:34.87]Captains need order it helps them stay sane.
[02:39.41]Plumbers hate slaughter, 'cause it ***** up your drain.
[02:44.00]Hard hats must be worn at all times on the site.
[02:49.07]It don't make no difference if you're lost in the light.
[02:53.18]The men here have lost their careers and they don't talk to volunteers.
[03:09.37]How your life cuts me, it cuts to my bone.
[03:13.87]We pretend that it's nothing, when we're on our way home.
[03:18.51]And I wish you'd abandon me here so I could be your volunteer.
