Lyrics
Teddy Bears, and Candles
verse
One late spring night, kids were drinkin beer
Celebrating, that summertime, was near
With youthful pride, they took a ride
They missed, that dead mans curve
verse
In the city, not a day goes by
Gang wars, and hate, we don't know why
Shots from a car, speeding down the street
There lies a soul , on the cold concrete
Now there's, teddybears n candles and cross's, on his street
Chorus
Those teddybears, n candles, and cross's by the road
They're in city's and the countryside, everywhere you go
Each one has its story, someone, you'll never know
Left, teddybears,n candles, and cross's by the road
Lead
verse
Why must it always, be this way
Why do the innocent have to pay
One mistake, is all it takes
Just when, we'll never know
We'll be, teddybears, n candles and cross's by the road
Chorus
Those teddybears, n candles and cross's by the road
They're in city's and the countryside, everywhere you go
Each one has its story, someone, you'll never know
Left teddybears,n candles, and cross's by the road
