The bottle is dry but you're still wet
One hundred years and you haven't said
A word or two to make it right
You're sleeping in, you're pale white
You've got no legs cause you haven't moved
You haven't arms to pull you through
To drink it down and clear the way
You've got no throat to say it straight
And so it goes away
And so it goes away
And life could be apart from me
And so it goes away
Changing tones like the autumn leaves
But you're colored more like blueish grief
And Father Frost might do you well
To sit you down and cast a spell
The creature rouse to sing replies
To the rhythmic morning rooster cries
So crack your eyes, get out of bed
I'd hate to see you freeze to death
And so it goes away
And so it goes away
And life could be apart from me
And so it goes away
