On the last day of the last year
When all things light and dark have disappeared
On the last day of the last year
I'm not already gone,
I'll be here
Until there are no corners to be turned
No lessons from the past we haven't learned
No cause for celebration or concern
No time left to think about what's never been confirmed
On the last day of the last year
When all things great and small have disappeared
On the last day of the last year
If I'm not already gone, I'll be here
Until there is no music to be heard
Until everyone is down to their last word
And no one here needs to be reassured That everything that will
has already occurred
On the last
day of the last year
When all things young and old have disappeared
On the last day of the last year If I'm not already gone,
I'll be here
Until everybody stops and looks around
And says, that's it, I guess it's all been found
And the sun ain't coming up or going down
And there's not another sight,
and there's
not another sound On the last day of the last year
When all things earth and sky have
disappeared On the last day of the last year
