Chorus i

FSo here’s your posies, here’s my tray

 What IAm hope we live long enough to see a better Gday

This ain’t forever, there’s no such thing

It could be you or it could be me

But it’s just a song

Chorus ii

So here’s your hook and he’s my line

I apologize, I couldn’t kill enough to you with rhyme

Bridge

When we are strangers

and there ain’t no better place that we can go

This ain’t no sensational and cataclysmic centuries show

No high tech prophecy of doom or gold

I’m only trying find the right road

It’s just a song

Chorus iii

So here’s the hook and here’s my line

There ain’t nothing at the end, but it’s sinking all the time

Well this can’t be the only way back down

But it’s the only way I’ve got to reach the ground

With just this song
