Select language to translate this lyric
Wake before the sun comes, youâre 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 canât look forward while youâre looking back
Where come the lyre, boy, that led you here today
Now it seems she hasnât much to say
But no need for further talk, letâs say youâre understood
Youâll have your chance to take her back for good
Just mind the rules, the devilâs tools
Business first at pleasureâs 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 canât look forward while youâre looking back
Thereâll be no good-byes, boy, that boat wonât slow for you
You tried and failed, itâs more than most would do
So dream a dream of going to by two
Dream a dream of going two by two
