lyrics
If I should stumble and fall
I know I can smile at it all
It's a long drop but
It passes so fast
Did you ever feel a chill, a breath at your back
Down by the sidings, the old railway track
It's the gold mine and
I keep coming back
Work all day and half of the night
'Til I drop or lose my sight
And will I care, no
I'll tie the rest of these wreaths round myself,
be happy to go
Space and time is a mystery
I'm as young as I'll ever be -
Its our last chance as children is
the breath before last
Work all day and half of the night
'Til I drop or lose the gift of sight
And will I care, no
I'll tie the last of these wreaths round myself,
I'll be happy to go.
Work all day and half of the night
'til I drop or lose my sight,
and will I care, no
I'll tie the last of these wreaths round myself
I'll be happy to go.
I know I can smile at it all
It's a long drop but
It passes so fast
Did you ever feel a chill, a breath at your back
Down by the sidings, the old railway track
It's the gold mine and
I keep coming back
Work all day and half of the night
'Til I drop or lose my sight
And will I care, no
I'll tie the rest of these wreaths round myself,
be happy to go
Space and time is a mystery
I'm as young as I'll ever be -
Its our last chance as children is
the breath before last
Work all day and half of the night
'Til I drop or lose the gift of sight
And will I care, no
I'll tie the last of these wreaths round myself,
I'll be happy to go.
Work all day and half of the night
'til I drop or lose my sight,
and will I care, no
I'll tie the last of these wreaths round myself
I'll be happy to go.
