It's Time To Pay The Fiddler

Well it's time to pay the fiddler and it's sad to know we've danced it all away

But the one night's disappearing leaving nothin' but the cold hard light of day

And it's time to start erasin' all the rainbows we've been chasing in our minds

We know there's no way of making other ties on us unravel and unwind

Yes it's time to pay the fiddler and today's the day the thirsty someones do

For the rest of all my days I wonder why the maker mismatched me and you

But there's so much to consider like my man and little baby

Will need and want my love just like you do

Now it's time to pay the fiddler but before we pay the fiddler

Let's say to him please play one last final tune

Well it's time to pay the fiddler now there's naked sorrow drippin' from my eyes

On'ry stranded and unshamed we've loved each other now we've got to leave it lie

But I can feel my hands a trembling and I search to find a handle on the door

So let's let the fiddler pull his magic bow across our heart strings just once more

Yes it's time to pay the fiddler...
