David Byrne - LIFE IS LONG lyrics

rate me

Ev'rybody says that the living is easy

I can barely see ‘cause my head's in the way

Tigers walk behind me- they are to remind me that

I'm lost- but I'm not afraid

Soul to soul- A kiss and a sigh

Sawed in half- by the passage of time

Halfway home- from a window you see

Chains and bars- but I am still free

People on the outside- I remember sweet times

This old rose- is always in bloom

Ev'ryone is happy- to be a baby daddy

Stone love- with nothing to lose

Life is long- if you give it way

So stay, don't go- ‘cause I'm fading away

Soul to soul- between you and me

Chain me down- but I am still free

Now I can say- those three little words

And ev'ry day- I'm dreaming a world

Soul to soul- a kiss and a sigh

Holding back- the waters outside.

Life is long- if you give it way

So stay, don't go- ‘cause I'm fading away

Soul to soul- between you and me

Chain me down- but I am still free<br />
