If I should stumble and fall
I know I can smile at it all
It's a long drop but
It passes so fast

Did you ever feel a chill, a breath at your back
Down by the sidings, the old railway track
It's the gold mine and
I keep coming back

Work all day and half of the night
'Til I drop or lose my sight
And will I care, no
I'll tie the rest of these wreaths round myself

I'll be happy to go

Space and time is a mystery
I'm as young as I'll ever be
Its our last chance as children is
The breath before last

Work all day and half of the night
'Til I drop or lose the gift of sight
And will I care, no
I'll tie the last of these wreaths round myself

I'll be happy to go

Work all day and half of the night
'Til I drop or lose my sight
And will I care, no
I'll tie the last of these wreaths round myself

I'll be happy to go
