There’s no point looking for ideal world
Those things are myths, precious, little girl
‘Cause I know just what it’s like to fight
And life can never be all sweetness and light
Each year goes by, the less friends I have
I left you low now I must have been mad
I left you low now I must have been mad
~
(Chorus)
I’m humbled now please take me back
In your white cotton dress, my tunic of black
I can’t stop my hands a-shaking
And I can’t stop these eyes a-breaking
As the vultures circle high, high over my head
Without you here I’m better off dead

White letters sprawled across stone walls
Come and join me now, just leave it all
Pick up your coat, place down your pride
Without your love I’m hollow inside
Things can improve in the blink of an eye
Don’t turn your head nor ask me why
Don’t turn your head nor ask me why

(Chorus)
(Bridge)
Now they say even Jesus made mistakes
Take my hand we’ll go down to the lakes
We can ride side saddle down a one-way track
Keep a steady heart and never look back
