Walking up and the bed was made
No one looked me in the eye
The more i tried, the more i cried
But it´s all for the best.

Watch my brother cutting grass outside
Sitting on the porch he told me
- it´s a long way to go ´fore we can rest -
But it´s all for the best.

You´re so beautiful it seems
On a lonely lazy morning
When i see you rocking back and forward
Whispering that it´s all for the best.

One day the stone will roll away
Soon you´ll see
Far away from home but never far away from me
And that´s all for the best.

Promise me son not to do the things i´ve done
Walk away from trouble
Promise me son not to do the things i´ve done
Walk away from trouble.

Say you love me, say you love me
Say you love me
Say you love me, say you love me
Say you love me, let´s just say you love me.
