This Is Far From Over

Will Oldham

[Verse 1]
Though half of life is gone for good
And we haven't acted as we should
You feel it in your heart of wood
That this is far from over

[Verse 2]
Shorelines gone and maps destroyed
Livelihoods dissolved and void
Entire languages unheard
And still it’s far from over

[Verse 3]
Be sure you teach your kids to swim
And navigate by stars above
The fate of landlocked life is grim
When you ignore our will to love

[Verse 4]
When all that's left is sea and sun
A lonely voice says “All's not done”
Its your child who will be the one
To sing it’s far from over

[Verse 5]
A traveller upon the sea
Sings “It's a sailor's life for me”
I now embrace eternity
For this is far from over

[Verse 6]
You never know what she will find
When we are dead and she is sailing
Nor what new thoughts will cross her mind
As wind blows in her hair

[Break]

[Verse 7]
Don't worry if all life is gone
The rocks and sea will still roll on
And new wild creatures will be born
Yes, this is far from over
The whole world's far from over
