Cut It Down

My love could cut her down
 Won't be no warning sound
 Be no shot of light down from the sky
 No writing on the wall
 It won't be there at all
 Wonder if there's any reason why, oh why
 When the only sign of living
 Is the sound of some machine
 Hammering and banging
 against the walls
 And the only thing we're giving
 Is some time that might've been
 Let's cut it down and start again once more
 Her love could cut me down
 When I think I'm homeward bound
 All the stars still shining in the sky
 And every ray of light
 Will still shine just as bright
 Wonder if there's any reason why, oh why
 When the only sign of living
 Is the sound of some machine
 Hammering and banging
 Against the walls
 And the only thing we're giving
 Is some time that might've been
 Let's cut it down and start again once more
 ♪
 And it's on and on it goes
 And it's on and on it goes
 And it's on and on it goes
 Oh
 Now love will cut us down
 Lonely on the ground
 Won't be no one to come down from the sky
 And everything we've made
 Will all just rust and fade
 We'll wonder if there's any reason why, oh why
 When the only sign of living
 Is the sound of some machine
 Hammering and banging
 Against the walls
 And the only thing we're giving
 Is some time that might've been
 Let's cut it down and start again once more
