 If you’re freezing  on your left  side
 And you’re boiling  on your right  side
 Then I guess  you might be  warm upon  the line
There  are many ways  one can divide  a life
 And I’ve got mine
 same as verse 1)
 I was flying home and I
 Saw the sunset from the sky
 I saw the dark come spooning down upon the land
 And I thought about the distance we all cover
 And it made me sad
 And as  the old year took  a bow
 And  joined the setting sun
It  comes around again
 Like  a refrain
And  we all sing along
 And think of things  we should’ve done
Till  one year when  the new year never  came
 Little comfort, little comfort
 I’m afraid you’re not enough
 I’ve had some learning both unwelcome and unkind
 And it seems there’s but one story told
 And then re-worked all throughout time
 Are you a good one or a cruel one
 It is just the laws that make us bad
 What can we do to measure where we stand
 Well I judge myself by what I give to someone else
 So I’ll know where I am
 Don’t let that sense of urgency betray you in the dark
 The rustle of a curtain’s not a sign
 Don’t frame this picture now
 As some kind of closing remark
 And most of all stay warm upon the line
 Most of all stay warm upon the line
 It’s best if you stay warm upon the line

I was flying home and I

And it made me sad

And [F]as the old year to[G]ok a bow

L[C]ike a refrain
[F]And we all sing a[G]long
And think of [C]things we should’ve done

Little comfort, little comfort
I’m afraid you’re not enough

And it seems there’s but one story told
And then re-worked all throughout time

Are you a good one or a cruel one
It is just the laws that make us bad
What can we do to measure where we stand
Well I judge myself by what I give to someone else
So I’ll know where I am

Don’t let that sense of urgency betray you in the dark
The rustle of a curtain’s not a sign
Don’t frame this picture now
As some kind of closing remark
And most of all stay warm upon the line
Most of all stay warm upon the line
It’s best if you stay warm upon the line
