When Can We Be

(album: Columbo - 2023)

When the sun freezes over
And the pigs start to fly
When the shows finally over
And there's a tear in my eye
When our faces are all wrinkled
And we've lost all our teeth
If not now, when can we be?

When the trains are on time and
We stop missing our flights
You'll learn to save up
I'll admit I'm not right
When you stop drinking too much
And I stop losing my keys
If not now, when can we

Dance upon the rooftops
Get drunk and laugh until we fall off
And fight until we call it all off
Like we do

If only we knew
That the moon won't turn blue
That I won't last forever
And neither will you
'Cause when I close both my eyes
It's your face that I see
So if not now, when can we be?
