End of The Line — текст песни (Stan Ridgway)

Commissioned for the french film terminus.



You are my only confidant

And my only friend

Together we will share everything

Until the very end



Chorus:

Theres no one here who shares my views

Or sees the way I can see

But theres just one thing that youll understand

Youll have to even up with me

At the end of the line (x2)







Ive bet it all before

But not everything I own

There are some things that you cant buy or steal

Or learn to leave alone





Chorus repeat last line x4





I toss the dice and skin the cat

And I always pay the fine

So well settle up even-steven

When we reach the end of the line





Hey, I hear you calling me back home

To fly or fall to the news of it all

Theres no dark destiny

Fate will receive what our love will believe

til we reach the end of the line





Chorus repeat last line x10
