All the Weight Songtext
von David Berkeley

Corner of 9th
Avenue A
Postcard arrived in May
Knew by the lick of the stamp it would say
You are resilient we′ll be okay
But all the weight of that day
Price that we pay
Things that just won't go away
And the things that won′t stay
Sign of divine intervention we found
Sign of the times God flipped it around
Watch what you wish for
You pay by the pound
If you're in New York
And don't make a sound
But all the weight of this town
Is bringing me down
Trying to lose what I found
Or just set it down
Just set it down


If the streets snap out of the time
If the world tilts til you fall
If the only words that rhyme
Don′t mean anything at all
You have to do
Is come back home
I′m missing you
Come back home
I'll sing for you
This song
And oh it sounds like
All the weight of this town
Is bringing me down
Trying to lose what I found
Or just set it down
All the weight of this town
It′s bringing me down
Trying to lose what I found
Just set it down
All the weight of this town
Is bringing me down
Trying to lose what i found
Or just set it down
All the weight of this town
It's bringing me down
All the weight of this town
It′s bringing me down
All the weight of this town
Bringing me down
