One day these boots will leave this town One day the mountains will come crashing down One day will be the longest night One day those wings will tire in flight Oh my lord, oh my lord It's death I can't afford One day there'll be nowhere to go One day that river will burst and overflow One day the wind will tame the flame One day that's never coming back again Oh my lord, oh my lord It's death I can't afford One day there'll be nothing left to do One day the rainbow will break on through One day, every day I'll think of you One day I'll say goodbye, ain't that true Oh my lord, oh my lord It's death I can't afford One day I'll come back for you One day you'll feel the chill One day you and I will be the same One day we'll fall together as the rain Oh my lord Oh my lord Oh my lord Oh my lord Oh my lord Oh my lord It's death I can't ignore
