Don't Leave Your Life Too Long (Live)

I was walking one day through the big
lights wondering when the world became so tired.
Bottles of vodka flashed as the
Coca-Cola sign shone like moonlight and I wondered
When the world beame so wired. Even the clearing of the streets,
it was all tiled and in the corner stood a tree in a cage.
And in the screen on the side of a skyscrpaer stood a war child
nestled in amongts the stocks,
the shares and the sports scores of the day.

I thought, don't leave your life too long,
It's gone before it's done if you hide away.

I was travelling one day to find a small
town, for I'd hear that it was far enough away.
Arrived late in the night and there was no
sound. I looked forward to the breaking of the day.
With the sunrise I headed for the ocean,
for its where I find the cleanest air to brewath.
Every road down a factory had stolen and
the smoke it billowed out and blocked the sea.

I thought, don't leave your life too long,
It's gone before its done if you hide away.
I thought, don't leave your life too long,
It's gone before its done if you hide away.

I was travelling one day down in Mexico,
In towns where peoiploe purely work to eat.
There's a shine in the eyes of those that let go,
And that shine was like a song that sang to me.

It said, don't leave your life too long,
It's gone before its done if you hide away.
I thought, don't leave your life too long,
It's gone before its done if you hide away.
