Its the way that you repair the broken parts

Its the way that you assemble

and its wondering that keep the stops and starts





Oh, this still life has its virtues

'cause everything in motion leaves

or is just left behind

and I don't think it could hurt you





it gets colder

holding out

holding out

holding out





There are days when I remember what's been lost

there are days that I have forgotten

like an old friend that moved to Canada





and I held it up

and I held it out

and I stay...





Oh, this still life has it virtues

'cause everything in motion leaves

or is just left behind

and I don't think it could hurt you





Oh, this still life has it virtues

'cause everything in motion leaves

or is just left behind

and I don't think it could hurt you

to stay a little while

only for awhile

we're crossing you in style
