Old 97's
How Lovely All It Was
[Verse 1]
Someone's on the run
Talkin' about you [?]
Said the rollin' stone
This very day goes home
All this way to jump
Or did I misunderstand
How lovely all it was
How lovely all it was
[Chorus]
If I don't see you again this way tomorrow
And my body doesn't break under the sorrow I swallow
I'll see you alone tomorrow
By and by
[Verse 2]
I've been gettin' up
Thinkin' I'd see you there
See how your plans have fared
The ropes we made back then
With all the tiny talk
I never conveyed my hand
How lovely all it was
How lovely all it was
[Chorus]
If I don't see you again this way tomorrow
And if my body doesn't break under the sorrow I swallow
I'll see you alone tomorrow
By and by
[Verse 3]
We're movin' on
You know we've got to mend
How lovely all it was
How lovely all it was
[Verse 4]
The sun moves up and on
So must we, my friend
How lovely all it was
How lovely all it was
[Verse 3]
We're movin' on
You know we've got to mend
How lovely all it was
How lovely all it was
[Verse 4]
The sun moves up and on
So must we, my friend
How lovely all it was
How lovely all it was
