Death Takes Its Toll

ohh ohh ohh
 She laughs in the doorway
 you're half down the block
 who wants silly flowers knowing
 the frost has come?
 You stare in the mirrors
 where objects are closer
 the night shift is never funny
 when you see she's vanishing
 Somewhere, it's snowing
 you drive without knowing
 inside, she's dying
 alone, she's crying
 Who, would've known?
 Caught in the cold
 Death takes its toll
 ohh ohh ohh
 Collapsed at the parade
 sedated for sure
 batons are a claim for fame
 until they hit the floor
 Somewhere it's snowing
 you drive without knowing
 outside, she's dying
 alone, she's crying
 Who, would've known?
 Caught in the cold
 death takes its toll
 death takes its toll
 death takes its toll
 ohh ohh ohh
 She laughs in the doorway
 your half down the block
 who wants silly flowers knowing
 the frost has come?
