The Holloways - Aspirin lyrics

A man and his wife and kids stand on the stream He's got two little girls just knee high from his feet But as he turns to say goodbye He's got a kiss for the girls but not his wife He looks to the sky and he wonders oh where Oh where went all of life And hope dissolves like an aspirin on his tongue An able bodied boy with an able mind He falls for the wrong sort proving love is blind They fell in love after falling in bed They tried to smile when the doctor said You created a life but you failed to say You shot your own life stage And hope dissolves like an aspirin on his tongue An old man sits with a beer and a barrel and a gun He says of all he's lost and all he's won He's got one last thing last to declare As he sits there dying in his rocking chair Stop this (??) Or I'll tear out all my hair And hope dissolves like an aspirin on his tongue (3x)
