Tumbledown Lyrics - Fish

It's just a matter of time a figure of speech 

That springs to mind throughout the day 

As the minutes go by, a second thought 

A moment lost, time ticks away 

And everything changes 

Forever never lasts 

No such thing as always 

It's all too soon the past 

Tumbledown, tumbledown 

Tumble, tumble, tumbledown 

Tumbledown, tumbledown 

Tumble, tumble, tumbledown 

Rain Gods with Zippos 

A tin man's with a heart 

An end with no beginning 

It's just a race without a start 

That you'll never win 

That you cannot lose and you fall apart 

Tumbledown, tumbledown 

Tumble, tumble, tumbledown 

Tumbledown, tumbledown 

Tumble, tumble, tumbledown 

The tarot declares a motion made 

A finger traps an empty glass 

The needles begin to make their mark 

You try to hide, you're leavin' tracks 

I dream of fire and water 

Dream of deserts, dream up plans 

Like mountains and castles 

They're only grains of sand that 

Tumbledown, tumbledown 

Tumble, tumble, tumbledown 

Tumbledown, tumbledown 

Tumble, tumble, tumbledown 

Rain Gods with Zippos 

A tin man's bleedin' heart 

An end with no beginning 

It's just a race without a start 

That you'll never win 

That you cannot lose so you fall apart 

And tumbledown, tumbledown 

Tumble, tumble, tumbledown 

Tumbledown, tumbledown 

Tumble, tumble, tumbledown
