Stan Ridgway - End of the line lyrics

rate me

Commissioned for the French film Terminus.

You are my only confidant

And my only friend

Together we will share everything

Until the very end

Chorus:

There's no one here who shares my views

Or sees the way I can see

But there's just one thing that you'll understand

You'll have to even up with me

At the end of the line (x2)

I've bet it all before

But not everything I own

There are some things that you can't buy or steal

Or learn to leave alone

Chorus repeat last line x4

I toss the dice and skin the cat

And I always pay the fine

So we'll settle up even-steven

When we reach the end of the line

Hey, I hear you calling me back home

To fly or fall to the news of it all

There's no dark destiny

Fate will receive what our love will believe

'Til we reach the end of the line

Chorus repeat last line x10
