Your Fight Will Not Be Long
When the doctor came to see us He said your fight will not be long And thought it pains me so to say it It's seldom that I'm wrong My name and my position They hang proudly on my wall And I hated him for being here I wished that he would go
But I just sat there unaffected You know I'd been brought up right And I stayed that way for three whole weeks They came for you one night And in the darkness of November Although I could hardly see I swear I saw Saint Peter offer you relief Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
You just went to him in silence Those doctors had been wrong Yes time had left some marks on you Tonight all that is gone As you moved towards the doorway Oh I begged you not to leave But your tired lips said nothing Your eyes shone with relief
And all at once it came to me And I fell down on my knees See every man must build a life And someday watch it leave
