Anthony Lyrics - Drinking From A Salt Pond - Run River North

I'll be leaving with the coffin open 

Tell your mother she could sleep inside 

I really never meant to hurt you 

I never thought that I could make you cry 

Come on, won't you leave with me 

Tell your mother to dry her eyes 

Nobody wants to hold your hand 

Nobody's gonna understand 

You know better, I know better 

You know better and I know 

You've got a heart of gold 

Keep it away from the door, oh the bitter ones 

You've got a heart of gold, I wanted nothing more 

I can't give up, give up 

She'll be coming with the shotgun on me 

Hell could only be a break from this 

Everybody has a word for you 

Nobody wants to listen 

Go on and take yourselves from me 

Tell your mother she can leave me now 

Nobody wants to hold my hand 

Nobody's gonna understand that 

You've got a heart of gold 

Keep it away from the door, oh the bitter ones 

You've got a heart of gold, I wanted nothing more 

I can't give up, give up 

I found my way back, but no one's waiting for me 

You've got a heart of gold 

Keep it away from the door, oh the bitter ones 

You've got a heart of gold, I wanted nothing more 

I can't give up, give up
