Stan Ridgway - End of the Line lyrics

Commissioned for the French film Terminus You are my only confidant And my only friend Together we will share everything Until the very end There's no one here who shares my views Or sees the way I can see But there's just one thing that you'll understand You'll have to even up with me At the end of the line At the end of the line I've bet it all before But not everything I own There are some things that you can't buy or steal Or learn to leave alone There's no one here who shares my views Or sees the way I can see But there's just one thing that you'll understand You'll have to even up with me At the end of the line At the end of the line At the end of the line At the end of the line I toss the dice and skin the cat And I always pay the fine So we'll 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 There's no dark destiny Fate will receive what our love will believe 'Til we reach the end of the line There's no one here who shares my views Or sees the way I can see But there's just one thing that you'll understand You'll have to even up with me At the end of the line At the end of the line At the end of the line At the end of the line At the end of the line At the end of the line At the end of the line At the end of the line At the end of the line At the end of the line
