Salt of the earth my friend ♪ It's all that we are in the end Well, you tripped up Over lines you drew
And I can take the hit but I'm sorry I don't want the bruise ♪ Your voice gets a little loud When there's nothing to talk about You shout ♪ Dear ♪ I find my light's fading out More and more by the hour, it gets dark
In here If you got time enough for me Sing me a song and send me to sleep Slip into my headspace while I dream Spin me a yarn, wrap it up around me ♪ Dust to dust, my friend Well, you're only blood and bones and I Know your heart's at war with your head
And I'm sure that it hurts to see
You're more than I'll ever have and more than I'll ever be ♪ I know it's a little late My timing was never great But I'm calling
Dear I just wanted to let you know That I won't bother you anymore I'll be gone This time next year If you got time enough for me Sing me a song and send me to sleep Slip into my headspace while I dream Spin me a yarn, wrap it up around me ♪ If you got time enough for me Sing me a song and send me to sleep I never thought that a lie could sound so sweet Until you opened your mouth And you said you loved me
