about

Recorded live at O'Gara's Garage in St. Paul, Minnesota in 1999.

lyrics

All our lives we’ve lived in debt
A jar of change our safety net
This hand-to-mouth is growing old
It’s time to play your hand or fold

To have a dream is not enough
You make it work or give it up
You deserve much more than this
Precious things need good lucks kiss

Cross my heart and hope to die
This time I’ll do more than try
This time I’ll do, do for you
Just for you

We’ve been dreaming about a home
It’s always warm and all our own
A front doorknob that’s made of brass
We’ll change the storms and cut the grass

Cross my heart and hope to die
This time I’ll do more than try
This time I’ll do, do for you
Just for you

Cross my heart and hope to die
This time I’ll do more than try
This time I’ll do, do for you
Precious you
