|
It's a struggle just to stay alive |
|
A brute force wind keeps us huddled inside |
|
While the ship is going under |
|
The violence will tear us asunder |
|
And the land is too far away |
|
Land is too far away |
|
Would you please promise me, you'll come back to stay |
|
Before you're too far away |
|
There's a time in every person's life |
|
You think you've got it figured like 3, 4, 5 |
|
But now the city's burning down |
|
To the sea or higher ground |
|
But the sea is too far away |
|
Higher ground's far away |
|
Would you please promise me, you'll come back to stay |
|
Before you're too far away |
|
When the sea rises up to swallow you |
|
The wind so cold it hollows you |
|
A new day will dawn just to keep up the fight |
|
In the end you'll know whether you were right |
|
We were never going down for the count |
|
We were always going all ten rounds |
|
Cause our dreams aren't too far away |
|
Our dreams are not far away |
|
Would you please promise me, you'll come back to stay |
|
You're never too far away |
