Well!
Didn't you look sharp in your boots when you met me on the path? Oh
Two tone to downtown Beirut but only half way back. Oh
Stealing bits of wisdom from the shelf
Turned prisons into prisms on the self. Oh Oh
And what do they know about the spring time of me and you? Ooh
Born in the midst of the long hot summer we lived through. Ooh
Did they see you run for every rhyme?
Did we run for running out of time? Oh Oh
When even heroes have to die
No one lives forever, love
And no one's wise to try
Oh oh oh Ah ah ah
Oh oh oh Ah ah ah etc.
Play D5 / E5 through the solo
Adding our own wisdom to the shelf
Stealing bits of paper, we had health. Oh Oh
Working away did we miss the passing of the time? Oh
In your own flame you can wither, but your passions still outshine. Oh
Did you read the writing on the wall?
Prophesying a doom upon us all. Oh Oh
That even heroes have to die
No one lives forever, love
And no one's wise to try
Oh oh oh Ah ah ah
Oh oh oh Ah ah ah etc.
But hidden in the writing on the wall
Many are the beauties of the fall.
