Lyrics

though i preach to the quire
i’m so lonely, loney lonely
as i walk on the wire
i’m just only, only, only
hanging on to the promise of you

though i run through the fire
i get colder, colder, colder
i’m not green
I’m not retired
i’m just older, older, older
I’m just a thread around the promise of you

so many times i thought of hanging it up
so many shots but it was never enough
so many nights i thought of hanging it up

every note that i write
i get closer, closer, closer
to the end of the night
and when it’s over
i’ll lay my head on the promise of you
