Some things come to he who waits |
|
but all is lost if you hesitate |
|
And I was never one to wait |
|
you'll know you were loved |
|
You can hire great lawyers, you can speak to your friends |
|
you can say he did this and that some things don't change |
|
Unwrap the present and burn the remains |
|
but you'll know you were loved |
|
Now you take Roscoe, he ain't much |
|
people say things are ruined after his touch |
|
It's like a tar was dripping from his brush |
|
but you'll know you were loved |
|
Or Stan or Jake emerging from your past |
|
from those love affairs that didn't last |
|
But me, I'll give it my last gasp |
|
and you'll know you were loved |
|
A parrot, a donkey, a dog, a bone |
|
some of us never had a home |
|
And if we did we left it long ago |
|
and didn't know we were loved |
|
Empty as a wooden clock |
|
left in the woods at twelve o'clock |
|
Insides all rusted and spring is popped |
|
but you'll know you were loved |
|
Even when you sleep at night |
|
inside your heart will cry |
|
You can never say goodbye |
|
when you know you were loved |
|
Under-achievers of the world unite |
|
You have nothing to lose except your fright |
|
And together we can perhaps past the night |
|
when you know you were loved |
|
And together we can perhaps past the night |
|
when you know you were loved |
