Oh, bring me some more water, after that another glass of wine No pretext for investments, borrowed eyes, borrowed world, borrowed time I'm feeling jumpy like a salesman, waking up to trusty coffee I.V. We're crammed in like so much cattle, so little time, so very much to see
Oh let it revive me, carry on carrying the fire Oh let it revive me, finding peace for a little while For a little while
The twilight of our youthful gaze Books and bridges burned and records smashed I'm fat and drunk and dumb and lazy, digging deep way past the petty cash But there's not too many nights like these, When you know you have it way too good Naked bodies, twelve foot ceilings, laughing way more than I knew we could
Oh let it revive me, carry on carrying the fire Oh let it revive me, finding peace for a little while Oh let it revive me, carry on carrying the fire Oh let it revive me, finding peace for a little while For a little while I got peace for a little while
