Less About When

Written by Charlie Peacock

Might be ten, might be twenty or more

But it will not be too long from now

On that day I will step from life to life

Less about when, more about how

When I was a young man you'd never hear me say

I'm looking forward to my dying day

Now I see there's some benefit to waving goodbye

I will not miss the selling, the sell, sell, sell

To be received without receipts—now, that's when all is well

To be received without receipts is when all will be well

Might be ten, might be twenty or more

But it will not be too long from now

On that day I will step from life to life

Less about when, more about how

Do you feel me? This is the real me

I like making, but taking it all to the marketplace is

The sting of the bee that makes the honey for you and for me

And I'm sweet enough, Lord knows I'm sweet enough

I'm sweet enough, Lord knows I'm sweet enough

I'm sweet enough, always been sweet enough

Might be ten, might be twenty or more

But it will not be too long from now

On that day I will step from life to life

Less about when, more about how

Less about the when, more about the how
