lyrics

MAY I LIVE SO LONG

I hear the message, I heard it plain,
I hear it murmuring inside the rain,
It's telling me that all the clouds will part,
Revealing life anew inside the broken heart,
So grab your dance shoes from the bottom drawer,
Then discard that dsk cuz you don't need it anymore,
The time is coming on, may I live so long

All my sons and daughters, all my earthly kin
Will find themselves full-throated once again,
Jane forgiving Annie, Annie forgiving me,
Me forgiving every count of hate and treachery,
There's people tending gardens, people spreading seeds
So Old Joe will desire only what he needs,
The time is coming on, may I live so long

People's dreams seem crushed to dust,
They watch their sacred hopes go bust,
There's nothing now that they can trust to save them,
The Grand Hotel ain't coming back,
The cinema will fade to black,
Lets deal with this fact is what I'm saying

People will be saying, this don't make sense, my friend,
Things are falling faster than we can build them up again,
There's fires everywhere, we're drowning in the smoke,
Who would give a quarter for such a foolish hope?
I say, that's okay, just let these things fall down,
That'll leave a space for grace for the day thats coming round,
The time is coming on, may I live so long
