All of the garden's flowers have grown to respect you
All of the latest money's been spent to protect you
And time cannot govern or forgive these words that have left you

So I'm going to keep on trying, I guess
To figure out where I can't miss

At least when you're weak and your money's been spent
You have some sort of proof you're still living

Resentful lost lovers within won't admit they misled you
Just to observe all the love not the lust that's inside you
Beauty and sickness cannot find the power to corrupt you

I'm going to keep on trying my best
To get you back into my arms

At least when you're tired of loving your life
You've got someone around just to hold you
At least when you're weak and your money's been spent
You've got hundreds of letters I wrote to you

All of the garden's flowers have grown to respect you
All of the latest money's been spent to protect you
And time cannot govern or forgive these words that have left you
(?) making this tempting to bless you
Eating away at the softness will hide when you need to

So I'm going away from you, baby
(carried away from my baby)
You know I, I'm going away from my baby
(going away from you, baby)

I'm going to keep on trying my best
To figure out where I can't miss

At least when you're weak
Your money's been spent
You've got someone around just to hold you
At least when you're tired of loving your life
You've got hundreds of letters I wrote to you

I'm going to keep on trying, I guess
