Seven Nations - Sweet Orphan Lyrics
Ooh, I swear this February's coldI stole a chance to hide down on Dubose Siding Roadfeeling like an orphan looking for a homeslowly I wake and the sky turns into goldRight now, I think he's headed down 15to find a mill down there he says noone's ever seenhis father took him there when he was just 15well, I don't know but I couldn't sworn I'd beenSweet orphan won't you say hello to the mill pond for meSweet orphan come aliveI know I promised I would stayfor at least a year or more and I'd work for half the paywith a thousand voices signing in my weary headsoftly they sing to me in bedSweet orphan won't you say hello to the mill pond for meSweet orphan come aliveSweet orphan if you say it's true I'll believe you for awhileSweet orphan come aliveAnd the rain it whistles lonely on this pondand I think it's sad you never learned to swimnow they've torn the old mill downand your dress blues are on the groundnow there's nothing left, just moss and tired treesSweet orphan won't you say hello to the mill pond for meSweet orphan come aliveSlowly, softly,sweetly come aliveSweet orphan if you say it's true I'll believe you for awhileSweet Orphan come aliveI can't hear you voice any more
