Lyrics

[Intro] Da-da-da-da Da-da-da-da [Verse 1] If I leave my front door open Would you come and visit me? Just to slander my name hoping That I would pack my bags and leave [Verse 2] If I did would you remember To feed the dove and clean the cage? And never count in front of the children Lest they die of old age [Chorus] I don't really know why we have to go our separate ways Separate ways Whether or not we grow after the seeds are sown Only time can say [Verse 3] Can I offer you baklava Or a bagel with cream cheese? Will we say grace to our father Holding hands down on our knees? [Verse 4] Are we better off just fighting? You on your side, me on mine Are the words that I keep writing Only pearls before the swine? [Chorus] What makes men claim that you're a friend When you are not at all? They just want They knock you down and then They lift you up again, just to see you fall But like a bird I'll keep on singing A song that never leaves your mind If nothing else you've taught me one thing "Never cast your pearls before the swine"
