Reflecting on the passage of time and the trials of life, this song poignantly captures the essence of enduring friendships and personal growth. The lyrics traverse the shared history of two friends who have traveled different paths yet remain connected by their past. Despite life's many ups and downs—symbolized by worn-out shoes and singing the blues—the song underscores the significance of cherishing every moment and living without regret. The recurring refrain about "livin' life by the drop" suggests an acceptance of life's unpredictable nature, and the underlying realization that, at the end of the day, what truly matters is the bond between the friends and the journey, not just the destination. This touching narrative celebrates resilience and the bittersweet beauty of life's ephemeral moments.
Life by the Drop
Lyrics
Hello there, my old friend
Not so long ago it was till the end
We played outside in the pourin' rain
On our way up the road we started over again
You're livin' out dreams of you on top
My mind is achin', oh lord it won't stop
That's how it's happened, livin' life by the drop
Up and down that road in our worned-out shoes
Talkin' 'bout good things and singin' the blues
You went your way and I stayed behind
We both knew it was just a matter of time
Livin' out dreams of you on top
My mind is achin' oh lord it won't stop
That's how it happens, life by the drop
No wasted time we're allowed today
Churnin' up the past, there's no easier way
Time been between us, a means to an end
God, it's good to be here walkin' together my friend
Livin' out dreams
My mind's stopped achin'
That's how it happened, livin' life by the drop
That's how it happened, livin' life by the drop
That's how it happened, livin' life by the drop
