song lyrics The Want Of A Nail lyrics
I ve been wrong I had plans so big But the devil s in the details I left out one thing No one to love me And no one to love
For the want of a nail (the world was lost) For the want of a nail (the world was lost) For the want of a nail (the world was lost) For the want of a nail (the world was lost)
For the want of a nail, the shoe was lost For the want of a shoe, the horse was lost For the want of a horse, the rider was lost For the want of a rider, the message was lost
For the want of a rider, the message was lost For the want of a message, the battle was lost For the want of a battle, the war was lost For the want of a war, the kingdom was lost
What s all this talk about horses and war? Put yourself in the place of the man at the forge And day after day you live a life without love Til the morning you can t take it anymore And you don t get up
Multiply it a billion times Spread it all around the world Put the curse of loneliness on every boy and every girl Until everybody s kickin , everybody s scratchin Everything seems to fail, And it was all for the want of a nail song lyrics
