Cut It Down -

My love could cut her down

Won’t be no warning sound

Be no shot of light down from the sky

No writing on the wall

It won’t be there at all

Wonder if there’s any reason why, oh why

When the only sign of living

Is the sound of some machine

Hammering and banging

against the walls

And the only thing we’re giving

Is some time that might’ve been

Let’s cut it down and start again once more

Her love could cut me down

When I think I’m homeward bound

All the stars still shining in the sky

And every ray of light

Will still shine just as bright

Wonder if there’s any reason why, oh why

When the only sign of living

Is the sound of some machine

Hammering and banging

Against the walls

And the only thing we’re giving

Is some time that might’ve been

Let’s cut it down and start again once more

And it’s on and on it goes

And it’s on and on it goes

And it’s on and on it goes

Oh

Now love will cut us down

Lonely on the ground

Won’t be no one to come down from the sky

And everything we’ve made

Will all just rust and fade

We’ll wonder if there’s any reason why, oh why

When the only sign of living

Is the sound of some machine

Hammering and banging

Against the walls

And the only thing we’re giving

Is some time that might’ve been

Let’s cut it down and start again once more
