[00:00.94]The Ash & Clay - The Milk Carton Kids
[00:11.87]The swing sets are empty
[00:13.86]Like dirt turned the dark of the night
[00:19.02]The center of this town
[00:20.71]It used to whirl in the glow of twilight
[00:25.77]It might look like god's away with all the trouble these days
[00:36.67]We'll come home before the girls are grown
[00:42.80]We're coming home tonight
[00:47.63]What oh have we done to run this country into such a sight
[00:55.04]Stolen from our brothers like we couldn't find a fair enough fight
[01:01.66]You wait on promise you will say
[01:06.88]Won't forsake the ash and clay
[01:12.74]Let's come home before the girls are grown
[01:19.10]Let's come home to fight
[01:26.18]I know we want whats best for us
[01:29.01]I know it has to come at a price
[01:33.64]I also know the trouble that you find when you stop being nice
[01:40.57]You look around you one day
[01:45.60]What you once knew didn't stay
[01:51.32]Let's come home before the girls are grown
[01:57.44]Let's come home tonight
[02:25.80]Have you ever asked a man
[02:27.97]To take your place at the head of the table
[02:32.98]You could shed away your shame if in the end
[02:36.57]You found you simply weren't able
[02:40.39]You might find out you could stay
[02:45.65]On the ash and on the clay
[02:51.19]Come on home before the girls are grown
[02:57.44]Come on home tonight
[03:12.49]Come on home before the girls are grown
[03:18.91]Come on home to fight
