On a gray day at the end of the world
A spaldeen rolls down the gutter along the curb
And goes under the tires where the little boys pee
Then they race those rivers down the street
While the little girls laugh but watch their feet on a gray day
At the end of the world
They all keep on playing till the end of the world
'Cause it's a long way to the end of the world

Look, I don't know where my life will end
But I have great desires
And you're my friend
So if I tell you all my fears
Wouldn't the faintest blush of love still find you here

On a gray day at the end of the world
Daddy takes the hand of his little girl and gives her away
He gives her away
And hopes one day she comes back to him
Bringing all the love and forgiveness that he couldn't give
At the end of the world
It's a long time coming at the end of the world
And it's a gray day at the end of the world
You see both of them waiting for the end of the world
But it's a long way to the end of the world
To the end of the world
