• getting on •

They didn’t let me finish
You said near the end
They say time is short
And it will never bend
To our will
To our wants
To the taunts
Of an unsound heart
Things fall apart

How are you getting on
Are you up to this
Turn your love light low
Till it glows like tarnished brass
Take a long look around
Though no more than a three day pass
My friend

You said let the song finish
You know how i love this one
Then the tune came up short
As the band played on
Out of town
Out of wind
Out of time

Out of replacement parts

So this is getting on
Is this what they meant by this
We’ll turn the lamps down low
Till we can hear them hiss
Take a long look around
And make it last
Take a last look around
It goes so fast
My friend
