The Metre

The Metre - Powderfinger

Written by：Ian David Haug/Darren Middleton

Blow the candles out

Raise a glass to the night

Let all the tension out

You've been wound up so tight

It's a tender trap to plan ahead all the time

If you measure the world by what you leave behind

Welcome to the saving grace

Welcome to the saving grace

Theres a sunset on the road

Reappearing as we go

Keep the glass topped up

It's not over just yet

Lock the social bluff

Celebrate your success

Turn the sunlight out

Find a place in the shade

If you measure the world by the mark

That you've made

Welcome to the saving grace

Welcome to the saving grace

Theres a sunset on the road

Reappearing as we go

If you measure the world by what you leave behind

Welcome to the saving grace

Welcome to the saving grace

Theres a sunset on the road

Reappearing as we go

Reappearing as we go

Reappearing as we go

Theres a sunset on the road

Welcome to the saving grace
