Lyrics
All this time I’ve been hanging on
To an edge I caught when we both were young
That the world I want wasn’t near enough
All was distant, always off
In all that war I’d forgotten how
Many men might die for what I’d renounce
I was staging life as a battleground
No I let that grasping fall
May the last long year be forgiven
All that war left within it
I couldn’t, though I’m beginning to
And we only made it together
Feel some change in the weather
I couldn’t though I’m beginning to
Though it’s all so uncertain, cold
All the rafters cracked, all the copper sold
There’s a ration back in a manifold
If you need it or forgot
May the last long year be forgiven
All that war left within it
I couldn’t, though I’m beginning to
And we only made it together
Feel some change in the weather
I couldn’t though I’m beginning to
And somehow I see it’s free
And with love and hate in the balance
One last way past the malice
One warm day is all I really need
And with love and hate in the balance
One last way past the malice
One warm day is all I really need
