He Laid His 97's Neatly By The Door

Play on B

The company
I keep so quiet
Beneath deep sleep
Some time ago

Do-do, do-do
Do-do, do-do
You left your shoes
Laid out so neatly
While I strayed away
From life completely

Will you hate me if I don't?
Send the messages I wrote
All the times left unresolved
What if I can't keep control again?

He was a thousand years old
And he took to the mountains to see what no man had ever seen
And what he saw was-

Bright streaks of light
Sprawled out
Across the water
Coated in sun
Your eyes seemed older

Will you hate me if I don't?
Send the messages I wrote
All the times left unresolved
What if I can't keep control?
Will you hate me if I don't?
Send the messages I wrote
All the times left unresolved
What if I can't keep control again?

It's coming a little bit, it's coming
He was creeping and crawling up the stairs, step by step by step
Each step more painful than the last
What was he thinking?
He was a man of wisdom, love and compassion
But the final step, he would never forget
