And I've got one foot in the door
I've loose ends to tie up
Right here, in the old therebefore
When I've finished my song
When I've shut down the band
When I've played out my hand
When I've paid all my debts
When I have no regrets, right here
When nothing is left anymore
When I've worn out my friends
When I've burned out both ends
When I've cried all my tears
When I've conquered my fears
Right here, in the old therebefore
When nothing is left anymore
When I've danced off my shoes
When my body's closed down
When my boat's run aground
When I've tallied the score
And I'm flat on the floor
Right here, in the old therebefore
When nothing is left anymore
When I'm pure like a dove
When I've learned how to love
Right here, in the old therebefore
When nothing is left anymore
