Not Long lyrics
I’m not long for this world
Please treat me kind
I am not long for this world
If you don’t mind
The stars are fading
The sun don’t shine
I’ve lost all feeling
And all sense of time
I am not long for this world
I must move on
I am not long for this world
Soon I’ll be gone
I am not long for this world
Please treat me kind
I am not long for this world
If you don’t mind
My boat is waiting
To take me home
No time for faking
I must go alone
Shed your skin
Change your clothes
Lose to win
Shrink to grow
Crack the egg
Raise your hands
Bend your leg
Understand
I am not long for this world
Just passing through
I am not long for this world
You know it’s true
The glass will shatter
The winds will blow
The past don’t matter
They’re seeds that we sow
I am not long for this world
No need to fear
Coz I’m not long for this world
All is so clear
Your heart is weeping
Your lips are dry
Your hands are shaking
This is not goodbye
I am not long for this world
Please treat me kind
I am not long for this world
If you don’t mind
Shed your skin
Change your clothes
Lose to win
Shrink to grow
Shave your head
Raise your hands
Bend your leg
Understand
My boat is waiting
To take me home
No time for faking
I must go alone
I am not long for this world
So please be kind
Please treat me kind
Coz I’m not long for this world
If you don’t mind
I’m not long for this world
If you don’t mind
