Lyrics

Oh, my love Had there ever been a spring? How would we know Ever in the unknowing? There's an old man standing by the side of the road Doesn't carry that weight no more He's a real live wire and all of his life There's now somewhere that he does not know Sifting through that old fall-out Waiting for the dust to land I'm gonna throw my cards as far as I can To know what's in my hand And I wrote my love a letter just a moment ago Said I'd be getting on the next train, but I did not go Yeah, I wrote my love a lettеr just to tell her so I was sure wе made a promise, but you never know And we tried to make it better We tried to make it so Oh, that feeling was strong You know nothing's wrong It's just that I was getting unwritten [Instrumental Break] Oh, my love Had there ever been a spring? How would we know Ever in the unknowing? There's an old man sitting by the side of the road Doesn't carry that weight no more He's a real live wire Sure, he knows what he likes In the morning on the edge of the moor Patient as a puzzle unsolved Patient as a heart untold He had to keep his cards as close as he can To know which way they land And he wrote his love a letter just a moment ago Said he'd be getting on the next train, but he did not go Yeah, he wrote his love a letter just to tell him so He was sure they made a promise, but you never know They tried to make it better They tried to make it so And the feeling was strong, you know nothing's gone It's just that he'd been getting unwritten It's just that he'd been getting unwritten But you know that this ain't getting undone Know that this ain't getting undone [Instrumental Outro]
