Reckoning

First thing in the morning
I found a little song
It scared me away
For a year or so

Close it in a locket
Shut it in a drawer
Sooner or later
It's back in your palm—

Once I had a chorus
Once I had a psalm

Now I can't remember
The words but I'll sing
What I know

Sing it for me
Sing it for you
La de da da
De da da
De da da da da

Sing it for free
Now let it be true
La de da da
De da da
De da da
Da da da da da da

Once I had a wife
Once I had a home
In April the both of them
Bid me so long

Gather up your sorries
Stuff them in a song
Sooner or later
We all sing this one

Once I had that life
Once I had that home

And when they were gone
Then the dead reckoning
Had begun

Sing it for me
Sing it for you
La de da da
De da da
De da da da da

Sing it for free
Let it be true
La de da da
De da da
De da da
Da da da da da da

Sing it for me
Sing it for you
La de da da
De da da
De da da da da

Sing it for free
Let it be true
La de da da
De da da
De da da
Da da da da da da
