lyrics

All of the days were laughing
All of the nights were shy of sound
But when those shades came down at last
There was no past

All of those miles are nothing at all
Most of those smiles are trying to frown
I know
But when my eyes look down they see
Now is not for me

Life is mine to hold
Only the told get old
And that’s not for me

Let’s play house
Now that it ours
And let’s just get lost at last
For here there’s no past

All of my paper’s been blotted
And the score card has been marked
And in Krapp’s tape we spotted a spark
But that was not for me

Life is ours to hold
Only the told get old
And that’s not for me

So, let’s play house
Now that it’s finally ours
And let’s just get lost at last
For here, there’s no past
