I understand that you need someone
give anything to believe someone
throw up your hands when you grieve
undone is this what you've become?
Baby, I've heard that you've lost your mind
it's nothing that anyone else can help you find
I know he planted the seed
but it's time that you weed and leave
the dead grass behind
I know it kills you to know
We don't always reap what we sow
and we don't always get to keep what we find
Sister, I've seen your eyes
I know your pain there's nothing you have to say
no need to explain
I wish I could help you here
but all I can do is be near and only time
can replace the strain
I can only give you words
I know it's hard and it hurts
but mother it doesn't always rain
