The Sadness In Your Life Will Slowly Fade-Bill Wells/Aidan Moffat

[00:48.36]The sadness in our lives, my friend, [00:51.16]will slowly fade away. [00:54.60]But until time works it's magic [00:56.86]we must struggle through the day. [01:00.12]How long must we be transient, [01:02.43]unwanted, and astray. [01:05.98]From sorrow how long must we flee? [01:11.80]But the night will be much kinder [01:14.27]and accept us as we are. [01:17.56]And treat us with impunity [01:20.23]when we have gone too far. [01:23.10]Forgive all our shortcomings, [01:25.91]and meet us at the bar. [01:29.30]Happiness for a small fee [01:34.99]And the dawn may bring it's demons, [01:37.53]and may blind us with it's truth. [01:40.39]As we vomit last nights fun [01:42.77]to find another loosened tooth. [01:46.47]Clinging on to toilet seats, [01:49.15]and clinging on to youth. [01:51.74]Can you hear the creak of my weak knee [01:58.13]But let's not be too hard on us, [02:01.00]let's revel in this joy. [02:03.60]Which may be gone tomorrow [02:06.42]so let's stop being coy. [02:09.43]I know outside you're greying, [02:12.31]but inside you're still a boy. [02:15.15]And you have a brother in me. [02:20.95]So raise a glass to friendship, [02:23.31]don't forget to bring the pills. [02:26.44]We've drank, and fought, [02:28.21]and ****** our way up many love-lone hills [02:32.29]On our quest for ever deeper love [02:34.87]and ever cheaper thrills [02:38.18]Is this how it feels to be free?
