So we're leaving
Friends of mine, brothers and sisters
Hoping that in times of trouble
And that we can lean a bit more
But lately, I swear, nightmare dreams
Are welling in me
And this ship is troubled
All because this ship we're on is sinking...
Hey, my love, I came to you with best intentions
You laid down and gave to me just what I'm seeking
Oh say, my love, you drive me to distraction
Oh, my love, do you believe that we might last a thousand years
Or more if not for this,
Our flesh and blood
It ties you and me right up
Tie me... celebrate...
Celebrate we will
'Cause life is short but sweet for certain
Hey, we climb on two by two
To be sure these days continue
Things we cannot change
Oh, my love, you came to me like wine comes to this mouth
Grown tired of water all the time
You quench my heart and, love, you quench my mind
Let's celebrate
Celebrate we will
'Cause life is short but
Sweet for certain
Hey, we climb on two by two
To be sure these days continue
Things we can...
Right up, today
Celebrate we will
Oh, 'cause life is short but
Sweet for certain
We climb on two by two, to be sure
That all these days continue
Things we cannot change
Hey, my love, I came to you
With best intentions
You, you laid down and gave to me
Just what I'm seeking
Oh say, come on, let's celebrate with me
Celebrate we will
Oh, 'cause life is short
But sweet for certain
We climb on two by two
To be sure that all these days continue
Things we can...
Oh, yeah...
Oh, we climb on two by two
Oh no, just to be sure
That all these days continue
Things we have not changed
Away...
