lyrics: Now I’m up I say
and I can conquer anything
at least for these few hours
I can hold your hand and smile
so let us brave the rain
and walk our city hand in hand
in this our golden age.

It’s nothing that the drugs won’t cure.
It’s nothing that the drink won’t swallow.
It’s nothing that your love won’t kill for good.

Oh no, I’m down again
and I don’t know when it will end
it’s like running in the sand
followed by those hanging men
but on their gallows pole
I do not wish to stand
so we will both pretend.

It’s nothing that the drugs won’t cure.
It’s nothing that the drink won’t swallow.
It’s nothing that your love won’t kill for good.

Now I’m up for good
at least that’s what I’m telling you
so you can smile again
and live life like I know you should
but woman don’t you cry
if I should steal away awhile
for I’ll come back to you
when I’m through.

It’s nothing that the drugs won’t cure.
It’s nothing that the drink won’t swallow.
It’s nothing that your love won’t kill for good.
