Two By Two

Wake before the sun comes

You're going where you must

Where fire is born and dust returns to dust

Light in your eyes boy

Dirt beneath your nails

And in your heart belief that love prevails

That girl so fair with ankles bare

You lost her to the wind

She sleeps below so down you go

An end now to begin

All you love commit to the ash

All you worked for gone in a flash

You can't look forward while you're looking back

Where come the lyre boy

That led you here today

Now it seems she hasn't much to say

But no need for further talk

Let's say you're understood

You'll have your chance to take her back for good

Just mind the rules

The devil's tools

Business first at pleasure's cost

If you should chance one backward glance

All will be lost

All you love commit to the ash

All you worked for gone in a flash

You can't look forward while you're looking back

There'll be no good-byes boy

That boat won't slow for you

You tried and failed

It's more than most would do

So dream a dream of going to by two

Dream a dream of going two by two

Dream a dream of going two by two

Dream a dream of going two by two
