Are we almost there?

How much longer till I’m safe in bed at home?

How much money do I owe for what I own?

How much left to pay?

Chorus:

Pay attention

This is it, more or less

Who would ever guess

This is the best of times

This is the worst of times

And it’s passing

Pay attention.

Is it over yet?

How much longer does the hidden road go on?

How much farther till I cross the Rubicon?

How much toll to pay? (Chorus)

This isn’t where I thought I’d be —

I ignored my own design.

But if you’re here, if you’re with me

I like it fine, I like it fine…

Someone tells a joke

Someone marries, someone else is giving birth

Someone’s praying, someone’s buried in the earth

All of us will pay — (Chorus)

RIP Deborah Griffin Bly. Miss you already.
