letra de bethlehem - charlie parr

[verse 1]
my name’s joseph too
i come from bethlehem
but i have lived here all my life
not just for the night

[verse 2]
my boy was two years old
when harod gave out his decree
and the soldiers cam to our street
and left us all cryin’ on our knees

[verse 3]
king said all the boys must die
trouble dwelled in his wicked heart
he’d heard a little baby was born
that would come to take away the king’s throne

[verse 4]
but that boy escaped the race
his father took him away
i couldn’t do the same for my little boy
when harod’s soldiers came

[verse 5]
the day he bid the decree, let’s hope
he’d have a wife and some kids
i missed out on so much
’cause of one man’s cruel wish
[verse 6]
there are people apart everywhere
blinded by greed and hate
i heard they finally got the other boy
i knew they’d never forget

[verse 7]
i saw him hung on a tree
i remembered my little boy’s face
he said, “you’ll die for love”
he said he’ll bring grace

[verse 8]
but these men don’t know love
and i’m bitter to waste them grace
i scream my curses to the sky
i will never forget that face

[verse 9]
then walked home from that place
to my cold and lonely home
and burned my clothing in a pile
and placed my bare feet on the road
