Lyrics

Translation
Bilingual
He had time on his hands
He carried the world on his shoulders
He said, "Meet me at the Hudson's edge
Help me roll my boulder"
Remember when I went down, running down
Took the B61 across town
To where he was waiting at the ice house
Wish it was my house
He took me out back for a drink
Showed me the heart on his sleeve
Love is a daily good thing
I see it in your smolder
But I can't feel it in my hands
And I'm wringing them more now I'm older
Remember when I went down, running down
Took the B61 across town
To where you were waiting at the ice house
Wish it was my house
You took me out back for a drink
Showed me the heart on your sleeve
Like ships in the night
We go down without light
We burn up all our anthracite
And try to make a spark
Find a crack and let it in
It'll come, it might be dim
Adjust your eyes, I know you can
You'll find me in the dark
How will I know if I'm the last one alive?
I'm the last one
For forty-one days and as many nights
I'll be standing where we stood
Under an indigo sky
Watching flames jump from firewood
