lyrics

First light in this mountain valley
Walk this empty parking lot
and I can almost hear your heartbeat
In this town that time forgot

Cause we both know that nothing is gonna last
so come paddling with me

We slept last night beneath the stars
sleeping bag and a bottle on wine
I finally showed you my scars
and how they mark the passing time

Cause we both know that nothing is gonna last
so come paddling with me

Time keeps sliding by
like me and you
in this old canoe
What are we gonna do?

So when it comes my time to die
and my spirits going free
take my body up the mountain side
and lay me down beneath the trees

Cause we both know that nothing is gonna last
so come paddling with me
