Old Days by Exhausted Pipes Lyrics

The candlestick, it’s dimly lit
The cobblestones on my toes
I know just where we are going
The sun it dips into the sea
The night and day dance again
Stars like arrows treat me like their kin

I know the other side is falling soon, but
We’ll jump just in time
Long hair will lead you in the latter days
Just let your head hang high
High as the old days
High as me

Another day another dance
I’ll only know once you’re gone
Wind swept lilies are the next song
Twigs under foot boots made of green
The smell of old in the night
Moving on just to make sure this is right
I know the other side is falling soon but
We’ll jump just in time
Long hair will lead you in the latter days
Just let your head hang high
High as the old days
High as He

Give me hope and happiness
Give me pain
I need one to have the other
Like the sun and rain
Give me love and leisure
Give me shame
You can’t have one without the other
Like the sun and rain

I know the other side is falling soon but
We’ll jump just in time
Long hair will lead you in the latter days
Just let your head hang high
High as the old days
High as me
