To Fly To Fall Lyrics - Drumfish - Drumfish

An issue of singular importance 

A matter of great concern 

Curiously I listened 

And a map he handed me 

Yellow brown and tattered 

It was I held it in my hand 

And from it came the smell of age 

He began to tell me of his plan 

A driven man was he 

In need to silence the call 

He asked me would I go 

To fly even to fall 

For a moment I considered 

But like St. Thomas I drew back 

My friend he uttered golden words 

I would not join him in his task 

Its always about yesterday, let it be for today 

I went on from day to day 

In the rut that was my life 

Play it safe thats the best way 

Such is the advice from my wife 

The last time I saw my friend 

He had fortune and fame 

What a terrible pity 

What a terrible shame 

What decisions are the right ones 

What offers should I turn down 

I guess Ill never learn my lesson 

Theres never time like now 

Theres never time like now 

Its always about yesterday, let it be for today
