lyrics

Today's the day when you show your face in town
The place the same but its you that's changed some how.
Lay out your things and fix your hair just so
Take all the time you need no one has to know.

I watched you soldier on
You must be strong to live this long.

Today's the day that you ought to call a friend.
Get yourself out from your house take a trip you planned.
The Starlight runs from south to north and gets there in day
You can take in all the sights or sleep along the way.

I'll stay real close to you and lend a hand if you're feeling sad.
I'll be your memory. You write things down that I'll help you read.
I'll be there if you find you need some help
Somewhere down the line.

One day and boom you're born again.
But you are helpless as a lamb.

Today's the day that you're really letting go.
Gather up his clothes. Vanquish all the ghosts.
It seems insensitive but its either that or trust in luck
And pray that your spirit strong enough to rise on these lonely nights

I'll be there if you find you need someone
Somewhere down the line.
