lyrics

Oh we might as well lie down love
Lie down and close our eyes
We might as well go walking
In the country of the blind
The long grass has grown
The wild birds flown
To their homes away in the blue
And nothing’s left the same
The whole world’s changed
Since you and I were true

Oh and how can a story be ended
When it didn’t hardly begin
How can my glass be so empty
When it’s filled up to the brim
And it wasn’t always so
It wasn’t always so
We had something better to do
And it didn’t always rain
Every single day
When you and I were true

In the country where we’re heading love
There is nothing but rocks and stones
No friendly plant or animal
No angel to guide you home
Until the day you’ll find
In the country of the blind
Some wanderer just like you
And the singing of a bird
Nobody has heard
Since you and I were true
