Jethro Tull - Life Is A Long Song lyrics

When you're falling awake and you take stock of the new day,<br>And you hear your voice croak as you choke on what you need to say,<br>Well, don't you fret, don't you fear,<br>I will give you good cheer.<br><br>Life's a long song.<br>Life's a long song.<br>Life's a long song.<br><br>If you wait then your plate I will fill.<br><br>As the verses unfold and your soul suffers the long day,<br>And the twelve o'clock gloom spins the room,<br>You struggle on your way.<br>Well, don't you sigh, don't you cry,<br>Lick the dust from your eye.<br><br>Life's a long song.<br>Life's a long song.<br>Life's a long song.<br><br>We will meet in the sweet light of dawn.<br><br>As the baker street train spills your pain all over your new dress,<br>And the symphony sounds underground put you under duress,<br>Well don't you squeal as the heel grinds you under the wheel.<br><br>Life's a long song.<br>Life's a long song.<br>Life's a long song.<br><br>But the tune ends too soon for us all.
