[abigail, spoken]
that night
back home
in the dark

[jo, spoken]
so how will you do it?

[abigail, spoken]
while shaun lies sleeping next to me

[jo, spoken]
how will it possibly work?

[abigail, spoken]
i keep planning and conjuring and dreaming this idea
until finally
i step fully inside it

[jo, spoken]
how can you squeeze your whole lives into a hundred days?

[abigail, spoken]
we’ll have halloween in the morning
christmas in the afternoon
birthdays at sundown

[jo, spoken]
it sounds like a game

[abigail, spoken]
it is like a game

[reggie, spoken]
how will you speed up time?
what about the seasons?

[abigail, spoken]
we’ll make snow in the freezer for winter
we’ll grow geraniums in the bathroom for spring
we’ll watch the traffic outside our window
and call it the thanksgiving day parade

[jo]
the years the years the years go by
the years the years the years go by

[abigail, spoken]
time slooooooooows down

[reggie / jo] (add harmony)
the years the years the years go by

[reggie / jo / dani / colette]
the years the years the years go by

[shaun, spoken]
the seconds stretch into hours

[reggie / jo / dani / colette / abigail / shaun]
the years the years the years go by

[abigail, spoken]
we touch each moment as it floats by

[all]
the years the years go by (the years the years the years go by)
the years the years go by (the years the years the years go by)

[jo, spoken]
the red door opens

[abigail, spoken]
we see our whole lives stretched out in front of us
an open road, all the way to the ocean

[reggie]
the years the years

[abigail, spoken]
and he says
let’s begin

[jo, spoken]
day one

[reggie] [jo, spoken]
the years keep on turning away from our faces, the / day two
light p-sses over us, oh how the days, how the / day three
days keep on turning, turning away from our faces, the / day four
light p-sses, oh how the days, how the
days keep turning

[abigail, spoken] [reggie, spoken]
the snow is falling / day five
the petals are falling / day six
the seasons are spinning so quickly
that we can walk right through them / day ten
it’s working

[all] [reggie, spoken]
the years the years the years go by / day nineteen
the years the years the years go by / day thirty
the years the years the years go by / day thirty-eight
the years the years go by (the years the years the years go by)
the years the years go by (the years the years the years go by)

[reggie] (continuous; abigail / shaun speak over him)
the years the years
the years keep on turning away from our faces

[abigail, spoken]
and as we walk the road grows longer

[reggie]
the light p-sses over us
oh how the days

[abigail, spoken]
and as we walk the days become one long day

[reggie]
how the days keep on turning
turning away from our faces
the light p-sses

[abigail, spoken]
and as we walk the seconds become one long second

[reggie] [colette / dani] [jo] (simultaneous when couplets)
oh how the days, how the
i love you more

days keep on turning
the years the years go by

away from our faces, the
i love you more

light p-sses over us
the years the years go by

oh how the days, how
i love you more

the days keep on turning

turning
the years the years go by

away from our faces, the
i love you more

light p-sses

the years the years go by

oh how the days

[reggie / jo]
i love you more
i love you more
i love you more
i love you more
