|
When you're falling awake |
|
And you take stock of the new day |
|
And you hear your voice croak |
|
As you choke on what you need to say |
|
Well, don't you fret, don't you fear |
|
I will give you good cheer |
|
Life's a long song |
|
Life's a long song |
|
Life's a long song |
|
If you wait then your plate I will fill |
|
As the verses unfold |
|
And your soul suffers the long day |
|
And the twelve o'clock gloom, spins the room |
|
You struggle on your way |
|
Well, don't you sigh, don't you cry |
|
Lick the dust from your eye |
|
Life's a long song |
|
Life's a long song |
|
Life's a long song |
|
We will meet in the sweet light of dawn |
|
As the Baker Street train spills your pain |
|
All over your new dress |
|
And the symphony sounds underground |
|
Put you under duress |
|
Well, don't you squeal as the heel |
|
Grinds you under the wheels |
|
Life's a long song |
|
Life's a long song |
|
Life's a long song |
|
But the tune ends too soon for us all |
|
But the tune ends too soon for us all |
