When we all ran back into the briars |
| [00:20.49] |
We told our children about the foreign shore |

|
| [00:26.01] |
We told them all about the tug of war |

| [00:36.97] |
About the hurting and the healing hand that hand |
| [00:42.16] |
|
| [00:49.80] |
Cause the music never lasts too long |
| [00:52.44] |
For the singers and the endless song |
| [00:54.61] |
|
| [01:00.71] |
When we held our words up in the mirror |
| [01:02.77] |
|
| [01:03.31] |
We told our children how to hold their tongues |
| [01:05.46] |
|
| [01:06.06] |
When we held our heads beneath the river |
| [01:08.83] |
We told them all about the iron lung |
| [01:10.91] |
|
| [01:11.68] |
Gonna tell them about the sins of the father |
| [01:14.43] |
About the junkie and the jubilee |
| [01:16.03] |
|
| [01:17.12] |
Gonna tell them about the roots in the water |

Cause the music never lasts too long |
| [01:34.53] |
|
| [01:35.20] |
For the singers and the endless song |
| [01:37.63] |
|
| [01:43.50] |
All our morning kisses in the covers |
| [01:46.01] |
And told our children what 'worthy' means |
| [01:48.03] |
|
| [01:48.77] |
And then you wrapped your arms around another |
| [01:50.99] |
|
| [01:51.55] |
And told them what was worth a pile of beans |
| [01:53.94] |
|
| [01:54.46] |
Gonna tell them about the call of the ocean |
| [01:57.14] |
About the singers and the endless song |
| [01:59.24] |
|
| [01:59.97] |
Gonna tell them about the body |
| [02:01.29] |
And the motion |
| [02:02.70] |
And how the music never lasts too long too long |
| [02:07.55] |

And the spider's web |
| [02:25.42] |

Cause the music never lasts too long |
| [02:28.61] |
|
| [02:29.24] |
For the singers and the endless song |
| [02:31.77] |
About the mind and the muscle |
| [02:32.97] |
And the weary mile |
| [02:34.08] |
About the heart and the hustle |
| [02:35.34] |
And the empty sky |
| [02:36.71] |
|
| [02:37.40] |
Cause the music never lasts too long |
| [02:39.68] |
|
| [02:40.27] |
For the singers and the endless song |
| [02:42.79] |
About the tangled up truth in the perfect teeth |
| [02:45.06] |
About the pilgrim and the picking |
| [02:46.29] |
Through the chaff and wheat |
| [02:47.67] |

Cause the music never lasts too long |
| [02:51.22] |
For the singers and the endless song |

About the butterfly kiss |
| [02:54.68] |
And the call for blood |
| [02:56.09] |
About the pig and the preacher |
| [02:57.27] |
And the holy mud |
| [02:58.22] |
|
| [02:59.44] |
Cause the music never lasts too long |
| [03:01.78] |
|
| [03:02.35] |
For the singers and the endless song |
| [03:04.77] |
About the breeze in the summer |
| [03:05.98] |
And the nose will know |
| [03:07.00] |
About the sleep through the winter |
| [03:08.24] |
When the cold wind blows |
| [03:09.49] |
|
| [03:10.40] |
Cause the music never lasts too long |
| [03:12.50] |
|
| [03:13.26] |
For the singers and the endless song |
| [03:15.84] |
About the lame duck lion |
| [03:16.92] |
And the thorny crown |
| [03:17.99] |
About the proud punk mule |
| [03:19.08] |
And the heavy plow |
| [03:20.50] |
|
| [03:21.43] |
Cause the music never lasts too long |
| [03:23.05] |
|
| [03:23.97] |
For the singers and the endless song |
| [03:26.62] |
About the sunburned belly |
| [03:27.47] |
And the mother's moon |
| [03:28.97] |
About the end of the music coming way too soon |
