Sweet Sunday morning
where have you gone
Who took your smile
who stole your song

They walk through you empty
they fall into place
Ashamed of your memory
they hide from your face

Sweet Sunday morning
how I long for the kid
That grew up dreaming
it'd be better than this

But pride runs through your streets
With his best friend deceit
And they play arms in air
Spreading lies, pain and greed
They dance on the grave
of a once peaceful day
As we stare down on love
lying dead in the way

Sweet Sunday morning
where have you gone
Who took your smile
who stole your song

But now we look at ourselves
as though nobody else
Could matter as much
as our time and our wealth
Now were running in place
can't fall off this pace
Consumed by the gold
absorbed by the race

Sweet Sunday morning
where have you gone
now more than ever
we need your song

What can I say about this Dirt EP? Well... I can say that Patrick is a great vocalist, writer and story teller. He can paint some images y'all. Only hate that this is an EP and leaves me wanting more. Justin Payne
