lyrics

The sun’s hanging low in the west
The new moon has shaken off its crest
The masthead stands empty against the sky

Been keeping the world at bay
Just another lonely castaway
Having one more, trying to hold on to the night

Found some friends to get me through
Looking for the lie that best tells the truth
Felt like the world stopped spinning for a time

May time bind us tight

We used to sing by firelight
Where the earth drained up into the sky
Sharing songs and secrets with the night

Now we’re all so far apart
Some through distance, and some at heart
As the past and present collide

May time bind us tight

You see, Pumps moved South, and Kramms went West
Bauman joined The Church, but Twinkie left
Katie’s a sailor now—both she and Starr got kids
Nick’s up next, but Larry split
Chimney’s getting re-married soon
And then there’s me and you

Still doing what I’ve always done
Always hanging on for far too long
Trying to fit my whole life into a song

The sky is closing down
As the waters widen between us now
I’m sorry; but I gotta be homeward bound

Some friendships have no end
They go out with the tide and come back again
With no parting words or backward glance
