Waking up and the bed was made
No one looked me in the eye
More I try, more I cry
And it's all for the best

Watched my brother cutting grass outside
Sitting on the porch, he told me
Tt's a long way to go
Before we can rest
And it's all for the best


You're so beautiful, it's a sin
On a lonely lazy morning
And when I see you rocking back and forth
Whispering that it's all for the best

One day the storm will roll away
And soon you'll see
Far away from home but never far away from me
And that's all for the best


Promise me, son, not to do the things I've done
Walk away from trouble
Promise me, son, not to do the things I've done
Walk away from trouble

Say you love me
Say you love me
Say you love me

Say you love me
Say you love me
Say you love me
Let's just say you love me
