When I was younger, a part-time job worker Department store center, I saw a man enter He was middle-aged, deep lines on his face Tight mouth and eyes glazed Eyelids just half-raised And I looked at him, he looked at me He looked so sad, I had to see What did he want, what could it be What had he been through before me seeing him In the store I worked for that year, that year Ice skates he asked for, in the middle of summer He wanted a good pair, the price he did not care I looked for his size, our best pair he tried Custom back and sides, excitement in his eyes I asked are you a pro, he looked sad and said no These skates are my last hope Without them I cannot cope And he said my wife, she drowned this summer Behind our house, the river took her I cannot swim, I need to find her I will wait till it freezes over And then I will skate, as far as it takes I will skate as far as it takes, to bring her back home To bring her back home, to bring her back home Back home
