All for the Best

Waking up and the bed was made

No one looked me in the eye

The more I try, the more I cry

And 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

Before we can rest

And it's all for the best."

You're so beautiful it seems

On a lonely, lazy morning

And when I see you rocking back and forth

Whispering that it's all for the best

One day the stone will roll away

And soon you'll see

You're 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

And walk away from trouble

Say you love me

Say you love me

Say you love me

Let's just say you love me
