There'll be long eventing but there's reason to believe
maybe next year will be better than the last
I cannot see beyond the undead all a'risin'
All I know is that these days go by so fast

And it's one more day up in the cabin
And it's one more day in Faerie woods
If you think that I should be a fighter...
I wish I could. Na nan na naaa... yeah.

I wouldn't think to try and leave any man behind
yet when we push we so often end up dead
I sometimes marvel at the way we pick ourselves up
whether downed by fate or sword right to the head...

And it's one more day up in the far fields
And it's one more night in foggy woods
If you think you might come to Wendmor... I think you should. Na nan na naaa...

Rode up to Xaos's Tower sometime after two bells rung
And talked a little while about my fears
I guess the winter makes you fight a little slower,
Makes you cry a little lower about the things you cannot show her

And it's been long eventing and there's no reason to believe
Maybe next year will be better that the last
I can't remember all the times I tried to tell those girls
To hold on to these moments as they pass

And it's one more day up in the desert
And it's one more night camping in woods
It's been so long since I've had a real friend... I guess that's good. Na nan na naaa...
