You run the maze, come out unscathed Shake off the blues Well it might be chance or circumstance But you still came through Every time I towed the line you were there to take my hand Cause in the end you were always by my side Words delayed I turned the page And lost my place It’s a symptom of the time to compromise And play it safe Even when I knew that I couldn’t take another stride In the end you were always by my side So lean right back and pour some sherry Fly away coal mine canary Guess I need to age let my hair turn gray To feel the ache Well I had to try and chose to lie I’d been so fake Let the papers fly a mile high Let them sort this whole thing out Cause in the end you were always by my side We were never ordinary Fly away coal mine canary Wherever you go I’ll follow you And if you fall you know I’ll fall too All these past emotions that it’s plastic that it’s fate When you see it all in motion then you’ll know it’s not too late I’d bet it all (oo-ooh oo-ooh) Bet it all on you (oo-ooh oo-ooh)
