So Long |
take the last of these roses |
hang them small and pretty on the vine |
tear em’by the roots from the walls where they climb |
for all time |
take the last of my money |
search the corners of my pockets for the change |
take my best |
take my worst |
take the blessings |
take the curse |
take my name |
let the stars in the sky |
fall by and by to the sea |
let the water rise up let the sun fall down on me cuz you only stand up for so long |
stand up for so long so long that you’re gone |
so long |
everything i have i borrowed |
i’ve worn this dress like my own |
shined my shoes every sunday as a child |
and now I’m grown |
so take the rings from my fingers |
take from my neck a silver chain |
take my future |
take my past |
when that sweet day is my last |
take my pain |
take my pain |
let the stars in the sky |
fall by and by to the sea |
let the water rise up let the sun fall down on me cuz you only stand up for so long |
stand up for so long |
so long that you’re gone |
so long |
take the last of these pictures |
take the nails from all the walls and all the frames |
take these memories from my mind |
flickering like candle flames |
