Life's Work
I listened
I always did listen to you
Singing all the way through
Your life's work, passion, caution, timing
Try what you saw, and you try what you knew
It was never always true
Your life's work teasing you
Like a statue, so dignified, so blind
They take and they take
But they don't seem to receive
And you don't sleep, and there's no money
Your life's work, passion, caution, timing
Try as you might, and try as you will
You were never truly still
And you try what you saw
And you try what you love
It would never be enough
Try as you might
And try as you will
You were never truly still
I always did listen to you
Singing all the way through
Your life's work, passion, caution, timing
Try what you saw, and you try what you knew
It was never always true
Your life's work teasing you
Like a statue, so dignified, so blind
They take and they take
But they don't seem to receive
And you don't sleep, and there's no money
Your life's work, passion, caution, timing
Try as you might, and try as you will
You were never truly still
And you try what you saw
And you try what you love
It would never be enough
Try as you might
And try as you will
You were never truly still
