The dandelion got undressed Before I could make a wish We get naked and we don't know why The waterfall, she gets no rest I poured all the love I had To give, not a single drop of which to cry The Preacher told me I'd be blessed To go on and then go live In the countryside When I saw Rosanna's head I regretted all the innocence she will lose the day I die Ohhh, honey I don't know With all the beauty lost If love is worth it Hold whoever you can close Every hand you hold you'll have to forfeit The wind's still blowing through the trees In the neighbourhood we scraped our knees The blood of brotherhood dried on the wall We walked ten miles on the beach Cigarette stains, silhouette It dreams, crumbling like a sandcastle The Preacher begged us not to grieve Said God is watching everything At the funeral I did my damndest to believe My lovely Joseph left so suddenly For any reason at all Your spin leads, and lives long Every time I get to sing this song It grows another flower on your grave I still forget that you are gone I fall asleep with the TV on Silence always seems to show your face God said son you can't pool on Your crooked sense of what is right or wrong Maybe he's in a better place Broken nest can make you strong Brokenness is not where you belong In all your lonely days And ohhh, honey now I know With all the beauty lost That love is worth it Hold whoever you can close Though every hand you hold you'll have to forfeit Honey you're the reason love is worth it
