Lyrics to A Crossing Song
What will you do?
With that dagger on you
Will you run me through?
And in awhile
With all that you can't reconcile
Will all those miles do?

All this wandering
Waning, won't mean much
All this squandering
Feigning a loving touch
I'll let you down

What will you do?
What, with that sword above you
Might it all fall soon?
And in your eyes
A face that you recognize
Might all its lies be truth?

All this wandering
Waning, won't mean much
All this squandering
Feigning a loving touch
All this pondering
Painless, but not enough
All this laundering
Raiments still caked in dust
I'll let you down

Some nights go quiet
Some nights don't quite end
Some nights go quiet
Some nights don't quite end
Some nights go quiet
Some nights don't end
