You'll Know You Were Loved Songtext
Some things come to he who waitsbut all is lost if you hesitateAnd I was never one to waityou'll know you were lovedYou can hire great lawyers, you can speak to your friendsyou can say he did this and that some things don't changeUnwrap the present and burn the remainsbut you'll know you were lovedNow you take Roscoe, he ain't muchpeople say things are ruined after his touchIt's like a tar was dripping from his brushbut you'll know you were lovedOr Stan or Jake emerging from your pastfrom those love affairs that didn't lastBut me, I'll give it my last gaspand you'll know you were lovedA parrot, a donkey, a dog, a bonesome of us never had a homeAnd if we did we left it long agoand didn't know we were lovedEmpty as a wooden clockleft in the woods at twelve o'clockInsides all rusted and spring is poppedbut you'll know you were lovedEven when you sleep at nightinside your heart will cryYou can never say goodbyewhen you know you were lovedUnder-achievers of the world uniteYou have nothing to lose except your frightAnd together we can perhaps past the nightwhen you know you were lovedAnd together we can perhaps past the nightwhen you know you were loved
