Cowboy Junkies - Those Final Feet Lyrics
Place my body on the funeral pyre,Cut it loose to float downstreamLeave it frozen on a mountain top,Suspend it high to be picked cleanYou said never to grow old,But you forgot to tell me howYou said never to grow oldAnd then you sank your teeth into those final feetLast night I dreamt of owls at my windowI knew that time was winding downTurned to tell you of my premonition,Changed my mind and lay back downYou said never to grow old,But you forgot to tell me howYou said never to grow oldAnd then you sank your teeth into those final feetNo sense wasting the time you got,You got to walk down every roadNo sense pretending that youre what youre not,When you got to shoulder every loadYou said never to grow old,But you forgot to tell me howYou said never to grow oldAnd then you sank your teeth into those final feetCut it loose, cut it loose, cut it looseYou said never to grow old,But you forgot to tell me howYou said never to grow oldAnd then you sank your teeth into those final feet
