Final Approach

when it’s gettin’ late
and the tale of the tape
is tellin’ goodbye-type lies

shoutin’ out the east window
of an old brick shop

been out there a while
hidden among a group of evergreens
and I know why

I know wye
I know wye
I know wye

she cursed my name on mtv
dropped from four engines to two

man on the radio
said you're thru

tell me Love
whatcha gonna do

ain’t no lyin’ down
no way diggin’ yer grave

oh baby rage
rage against the dying sight
have faith in the light

fasten yer seatbelts
and hang on tight

here comes the night

on our final approach
to what matters most

it’s not a house by the coast
ain’t no vault of gold

on our final approach
to what matters most

ain’t no diamond ring
ain’t these words I sing

lost another engine
gained a new friend

will she go there with me
pretty soon - we’ll see

on our final approach
to what matters most

father son and holy ghost
what you believe is what you’ll see

on our final approach
to what matters most

it’s the silent still
it’s Love that we feel

it’s the raising you up
it’s the praising good luck

it’s the empty screen
it’s the unseen scene

on our final approach
to what matters most

to what matters most
to what matters most

on our final approach
to what matters most
