Lyrics Old 97’s – How Lovely All It Was

Someone’s on the run
Talkin’ about you leave
Said the rollin’ stone
This very day goes home

If I don’t see you again this way tomorrow
And my body doesn’t break under the sorrow I swallow
I’ll see you alone tomorrow
By and by

I’ve been gettin’ up
Thinkin’ I’d see you there
See how your plans have fared
The ropes we made back then
With all the tiny talk
I never can fake my hand
How lovely all it was
How lovely all it was

If I don’t see you again this way tomorrow
And my body doesn’t break under the sorrow I swallow
I’ll see you alone tomorrow
By and by

We’re movin’ on
You know we’ve got to mend
How lovely all it was
How lovely all it was

The sun moves up and on

We’re movin’ on
You know we’ve got to mend
How lovely all it was
How lovely all it was

The sun moves up and on
So must we, my friend
How lovely all it was
How lovely all it was
