Forged In Hell And Heaven Sent

Forged In Hell And Heaven Sent Lyrics

It's been so long since I've seen you and I'm not sure where to start
Was it yesterday or decades when we tore this town apart?
We'd start drinking in the afternoon and close the bars all down
It's been too long since I've seen you, I'm so glad you're back in town

We went through so much together, you and me and all the gang
All those crazy death defiers chasing storms and racing trains
It's a wonder there's a single one of us still left alive
To feast on best-forgotten memories and toast the ones up in the skies

It's been so long since I've seen you and I know you've been through hell
And it's taken its toll on you and it's lessons served us well
But I still can see that sparkle in your eyes and in your smile
Glad you're back in town this evening, have a seat and stay a while

So you had a little daughter and I see she's almost grown
And I guess she's had to grow up pretty fast
Time went racing past us, I've got two kids of my own
And I'm trying to make this time that we're in last
Not let the moments all slip past us
Answers to questions they'd never ask us
The things that kept us youngest came pounding down upon us
The whole world slipped out from under us

It's been too long since I've seen you, wonder where the time all went
A whole decade before and two years since your accident
It's a miracle you're walking, even if a little bent
Guess the minutes we're together are forged in hell and heaven sent
