Don't gotta talk about it just trying to get used to you
It's startin to seem like we can't do the things we used to do
Don't gotta worry bout me I'm learning how to give a fuck
Not much to say to yah just wanted to say good luck
And why does it always have to be
This way between you and me
And if you're going back that way my friend
Would you leave me there until the end?

Sometimes the stars at night they sure do get me moved
They're like you're eyes they lift me up each time I lose
But them stars they never struck me down paralyzed
Oh that's just you baby tellin me silent lies
Do you care if he cries?
Shrivels up inside
And if you're going back that way my friend
Would you leave me there until the end?

We've had good times together but I think that we both know
I got somewhere to be and baby you can't go
I stand here now saying I don't wanna see you no more
So don't invite me in when I come knocking at your door
Why can't I ever resist
your sweet Babylonian kiss?
And if you're going back that way my friend
Would you leave me there until the end?
Would you leave me there until the end?

All the nights I spent alone
Talkin by myself
Never wanted to bother you
Or be somebody else

Hey come to think of it, it looks like we're all here
I may not say it much but I'd like to keep y'all near
It might not mean much to you but I think it's pretty cool to be
A couple kids just making our way through history
And I'd hate to see
A world without you and me
And if you're going back that way my friends
Would you lead me there until the end?

I hadn't thought about it but I suppose you'd be there too
I can't decide if I'd want to spend it all with you
I couldn't choose I had to get down on my knees
And ask the Lord "Have mercy, can I go with her please?"
And He said, "Are you kidding Me?
What is it that you can't see?
And if you go back that way my friend,
I'll leave you there until the end!"

Well if You say so I guess I'll take it from You
It's just a shame that Your Verdict got me feeling so blue
So where we going now I gotta lotta songs to play
To keep You in my heart and sing my blues away
Oh Your impossible Task
You didn't even ask
And if I'm going back that Way my friend
Would You wait for me until the end?
Would You wait for me until the end?

I've seen the ways You do
I've talked to You
I've seen so many people
Feeling so blue

I read a story once about a guy who came back from the dead
He didn't rest he said, "All I saw was red"
I thought a while bout it, I think I figured out what went wrong
Well love sure burns when you've been away from Home too long
And when you finally realize
Everybody dies
And when you're coming back this way my friends
I'll be waiting for you til the end
I'll be waiting for you til the end
