Drumfish - To Fly To Fall lyrics

An issue of singular importance A matter of great concern Curiously I listened And a map he handed me Yellow brown and tattered It was I held it in my hand And from it came the smell of age He began to tell me of his plan A driven man was he In need to silence the call He asked me would I go To fly even to fall For a moment I considered But like St. Thomas I drew back My friend he uttered golden words I would not join him in his task It's always about yesterday, let it be for today I went on from day to day In the rut that was my life Play it safe that's the best way Such is the advice from my wife The last time I saw my friend He had fortune and fame What a terrible pity What a terrible shame What decisions are the right ones What offers should I turn down I guess I'll never learn my lesson There's never time like now There's never time like now It's always about yesterday, let it be for today
