Daniel Norgren
As Long As We Last
(Verse)
Just this flash of light
In the endless night
And it's done
One day a diamondback
From the flour sack
Is gonna come

(Chorus)
I hear the old folks when they say
'It's funny how time slips away'
I hear the old folks when they say
'Days getting shorter every day'

(Verse)
And then the box and stone (?)
Oh, it'll weep and moan
And it's gone
Flesh and bone
Will pay off the loan
When it's done

(Chorus)
I hear the old folks when they say
'It's funny how time slips away'
I hear the old folks when they say
'Days getting shorter every day'
Come here now
And let it come fast
Come here now
As long as you last

(Verse)
No more two-by-two
No more me and you
When it's done
Dreams and photographs
Are what will be left
When it's done

(Chorus)
I hear the old folks when they say
'It's funny how time slips away'
I hear the old folks when they say
'Days getting shorter every day'

Come here now
And better come fast
Come here now
As long as you last

Come here now
And better come fast
Come here now
As long as you last
(Fade Out)
