Life isn't a game won or tied

Lost by either side

Then some people's idea

Of the straight and narrow didn't appeal to me


If you were my life's companion

As it seems you may turn out to be

I'm contemplating

How I hope I'll find you waiting

At the very end of this crooked line


Love isn't a trial of strength and weakness

Through light into darkness

Then some people remark

The worthwhile fire never started without that spark


If you were my life's companion

As it seems you may turn out to be

I'm contemplating

How I hope I'll find you waiting

At the very end of this crooked line
