As the verses unfold
And your soul suffers the long day
And the twelve o’clock gloom, spins the room
You struggle on your wayWell, don’t you sigh, don’t you cry
Lick the dust from your eye
Life’s a long song
Life’s a long song
We will meet in the sweet light of dawn— Jethro Tull, Life’s A Long Song

Can I be honest?
