Verse 1
If you're frCeezing on your lGeft side
And you're bAmoiling on your Fright side
Then I gueFss you might Gbe warm uponC the line
FThere are many Gways one can diAmvide a life
And I've got mCine
Verse 2 (same as verse 1)
I was flying home and I
Saw the sunset from the sky
I saw the dark come spooning down upon the land
And I thought about the distance we all cover
And it made me sad
Chorus
And Fas the old year toGok a bow
AndC joined the setting sun
FIt comes around Gagain
LCike a refrain
FAnd we all sing aGlong
And think of Cthings we should've done
FTill one year wGhen the new year Cnever came
Verse 3
Little comfort, little comfort
I'm afraid you're not enough
I've had some learning both unwelcome and unkind
And it seems there's but one story told
And then re-worked all throughout time
Verse 4
Are you a good one or a cruel one
It is just the laws that make us bad
What can we do to measure where we stand
Well I judge myself by what I give to someone else
So I'll know where I am
Chorus 2
Don't let that sense of urgency betray you in the dark
The rustle of a curtain's not a sign
Don't frame this picture now
As some kind of closing remark
And most of all stay warm upon the line
Most of all stay warm upon the line
It's best if you stay warm upon the line
