Your Fight Will Not Be Long - The Wooden Sky[00:00:00]
When the doctor came to see us[00:00:00]
Said your fight would not be long[00:00:04]
And though it pains me so to say it[00:00:08]
Seldom that I'm wrong[00:00:12]
See my name and my position[00:00:15]
They hang proudly on my wall[00:00:19]
And I hated him for being here[00:00:24]
Just wished that he would go[00:00:28]
I just sat there unaffected[00:00:31]
You know I'd been brought up right[00:00:35]
And I stayed that way for three whole weeks[00:00:39]
They came for you one night[00:00:43]
And in the darkness of November[00:00:47]
Although I could hardly see[00:00:51]
Well I swear I saw Saint Peter[00:00:55]
Offer you relief[00:00:59]
You just went to him in silence[00:01:03]
Those doctors had been wrong[00:01:07]
Yes time had left some marks on you[00:01:10]
Tonight all that was done[00:01:15]
And as you moved towards the doorway[00:01:18]
Oh I begged you not to leave[00:01:22]
But your tired lips said nothing[00:01:26]
And your eyes shone with relief[00:01:30]
And all at once it came to me[00:01:34]
And I fell down on my knees[00:01:38]
You see every man must build a life[00:01:42]
And someday watch it leave[00:01:46]
