Tumbledown by Fish
Tumbledown lyrics
Songwriters: Dick, Derek William; Simmonds, Mickey;
It's just a matter of time a figure of speech
That springs to mind throughout the day
As the minutes go by, a second thought
A moment lost, time ticks away
And everything changes
Forever never lasts
No such thing as always
It's all too soon the past
Tumbledown, tumbledown
Tumble, tumble, tumbledown
Tumbledown, tumbledown
Tumble, tumble, tumbledown
Rain Gods with Zippos
A tin man's with a heart
An end with no beginning
It's just a race without a start
That you'll never win
That you cannot lose and you fall apart
Tumbledown, tumbledown
Tumble, tumble, tumbledown
Tumbledown, tumbledown
Tumble, tumble, tumbledown
The tarot declares a motion made
A finger traps an empty glass
The needles begin to make their mark
You try to hide, you're leavin' tracks
I dream of fire and water
Dream of deserts, dream up plans
Like mountains and castles
They're only grains of sand that
Tumbledown, tumbledown
Tumble, tumble, tumbledown
Tumbledown, tumbledown
Tumble, tumble, tumbledown
Rain Gods with Zippos
A tin man's bleedin' heart
An end with no beginning
It's just a race without a start
That you'll never win
That you cannot lose so you fall apart
And tumbledown, tumbledown
Tumble, tumble, tumbledown
Tumbledown, tumbledown
Tumble, tumble, tumbledown
