Thick as thieves The last of leaves In the winter sun Holding fast This freezing branch Is home to us Step, step right over the line And onto borrowed time When it's life, not waiting to die Waiting to divide to divide Counting stars And passing cars On the interstate The end is near I feel it dear, But I am not afraid Step, step right over the line And onto borrowed time When it's life, not waiting to die Waiting to divide To divide But you say you're getting tired You're tired and so am I When you fall I'll fall behind Step, step right over the line Onto borrowed time When it's life, not waiting to die Waiting to divide to divide But you say you're getting tired You're tired and so am I When you fall I'll fall behind
