lyrics
When I'm an old man
When I'm tired and dying
I'll go easy my friend 'cause I lived as a young man
When I'm an old man
When my lifeline's the small straw
I'll go easy my friend
I'd like to see her pretty eyes
Death
This is what i'd say, "Take me as you will."
You and I are binding in love that was destined
Shift and churn in your heart towards the exit
See how your body's suspended and breathless
Apart from you and I
Recall of memories are rapidly fading and
Words jumbling in your head, falling back down to the dead
For the worms we expect in the morning
Surround you and I
Now we'll go down to hillside river
Lying in shade of the trees how you've often
Lied in the sun breaking fragmented firelight around
Sparkling and dancing along winds the water
Nearly arrived back from a cloud fall
Follow her down and then read how she rises on
