Interrogative

from Dialects by Les Doux

lyrics

Was I ever enough
You were my child of dust
Didn't watch you grow
Was it just too much
My child of dust
That your family drove you from home
Is there comfort when you sleep in the street
Does the dirt sing your name as you go to sleep
Is there no one that hears when your home is the road And your hold fast is the sound of your feet as they roam

Where will you go (my son) and how will I know when you get there
How will you know where to roam when home is all you know

Is it the loneliness that roams that unsettled your bones
Is it the loneliness that's rocked you to sleep
That drove you far from your mother's reach

When will you come home to once again be your mother's son
Don't you know I've fallen short and I pray that one day you will forgive me

Did I give you all that I had
Was it just too much
Was I ever enough
