Lyrics

[Verse 1] I pulled out with the mountain laurel blooming On a dirt road that is soon to be paved Down to the site of my original establishment And the West End family grave [Chorus] Now one day moves into two I'm losing Everything except for you I would sing you a song of devotion That's what I should do [Verse 2] Blood runs thick and when it rains it pours down On the family tree on the fields of war If I spend my time being broken hearted and grieving bound Then I haven't much need to look forward [Chorus] I just let one day move into two And I'm losing Everything except for you I would sing you a song of devotion [Bridge] Book of days Well, and the way things lay That's just space and time Gave it up All for a love That won't be defined [Verse 3] I've had enough temporary acquisitions And building fences for no gain And taking dead trees down before the winter freeze I said let 'em rot and fall where they may [Chorus] Just let one day move into two I'm losing Everything except for you I would sing you a song of devotion (Ah yeah) That's what I should do (I gotta let them fall where they may) ('Cause one day moves into two) It's the book of days (I'm losing) It's the way things lay (Everything except for you) That's just space and time (I, I would sing you a song) I gave it up (Of devotion) All for your love (Yeah) That's what I should do That's what I should do That's what I should do (Hoo) [Outro] Thanks. Thanks y'all.
