Oh we might as well lie down love Lie down and close our eyes We might as well go walking In the country of the blind The long grass has grown The wild birds flown To their homes away in the blue And nothing's left the same The whole world's changed Since you and I were true Oh and how can a story be ended When it didn't hardly begin How can my glass be so empty When it's filled up to the brim And it wasn't always so It wasn't always so We had something better to do And it didn't always rain Every single day When you and I were true In the country where we're heading love There is nothing but rocks and stones No friendly plant or animal No angel to guide you home Until the day you'll find In the country of the blind Some wanderer just like you And the singing of a bird Nobody has heard Since you and I were true
