I wanna know your plans And how involved in them I am When you leave for good this fall Will I be forgiven? And if you want roses, I'll buy a bouquet If that just won't cut it, well what can I say? You're what keeps me believing the world's not gone dead Strengthen my bones and put words in my head They pour out to paper, it's all for you 'Cause that's what you do That's what you do
I want to know your fears And if you'll forget me next year And when the jets go up and out Will out hearts stay here? If you could forgive me, for being so brash You could hit me or whip me I'd savor each lash You're what keeps me believin' this world's not gone dead Strengthen my bones and put words in my head They pour out to paper, its all for you 'Cause that's what you do 'Cause soon we'll be leavin Will this strength still be mine?
