"Down The Line" lyrics

"Down The Line"

I'm singin' along
To everyone who's gone
Barely gone, soon to be gone
Words we love live on
Ghosts of old and young
Faded or flash undone

I know it's alright, I know it's alright
I know it's alright, I know it's alright

All the songs unsung
The pages unwritten
Moons that never meet the sun
I can't weep alone
Let's ache and howl and moan
Loss is buried in our bones

I know it's alright, I know it's alright
I know it's alright, I know it's alright
I know it's alright, I know it's alright
I know it's alright, I know it's alright

It's not the summer we were promised
It's the summer that we deserve
It's not the body that we wanted
It's the body made to weather this world
Spent the season sad and haunted
Seeking wisdom in stars too dim to shine
If it's coming for us, darlin'
Take my hand and dance me down the line

I know it's alright, I know it's alright
I know it's alright, I know it's alright
I know it's alright, I know it's alright
I know it's alright, I know it's alright

It's not the summer we were promised
It's the summer that we deserve
It's not the body that we wanted
It's the body made to weather this world
Spent the season sad and haunted
Seeking wisdom in stars too dim to shine
If it's coming for us, darlin'
Take my hand and dance me down the line

No getting it wrong this time
