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 wheel.
|
|
Life's a long song.
|
Life's a long song.
|
Life's a long song.
|
|
But the tune ends too soon for us all.
