I Looked Down The Line And I Wondered Lyrics

I looked down the line

And I wondered how

All things would come to be

I stood staring with my

Best intentions worst impulses

Old companions we



Feel like burying myself

Behind the curve of the earth

But I'm a little concerned

I'll be winding up right back here



If you look high

You might see the sky

Staring down on all you depend

If you look here

That puts you where?

You may as well be anywhere man

I'm heading on my way



Everybody finds their way round

They find their way down



See the old sheep dog

By the side of the track

He's got a sea lion's breath

And his raincoat's cobalt black

A number 13 pup

He came at little cost

I was his master once

Now loss is his boss

And he'll be fine

He'll find his own way out of the light



I'm gonna bury my love

Behind the curve of the earth

I'm a little concerned

I'll be finding out

What it's worth



I woke up in the night

To find I was mercifully alone

There's nowhere that I need to be

And nothing that I need to know now

I just want to find my way



Everybody finds their way round

They find their way down.
