The Wanting

verse 1 Don’t sell the farm yet, believe in me Don’t break the branches off the family tree I’m made of good wood, bend but don’t break There’s only some much middle sons can take Pre-Chorus My mechanics of coping Alcohol, melatonin Ain’t enough to get you out of my life You can grab, you can hold it But you’re gonna let go when Everything about it just ain’t right So we’re just Chorus Dead fields sown in pain I’m the last of your name I can’t do it all but I wouldn’t do it all the same Hard hearts, soft on the past Well the hurt came quick, bitterness came to last You’re the one thing that I want And the wanting’s all I’ll have verse 2 There are some deeds that can’t be undid There are some moral slopes that can’t be unslid Did you do right by us? Best it could be You’ve done no harm but you’ve been no good to me Pre-Chorus You only think you’re at home when You’re out and making atonement Someday you got to make up your own mind You’re never gonna get free of The way you left me to need love I returned the pain you paid us in kind So we’re just Chorus Dead fields sown in pain I’m the last of your name I can’t do it all but I wouldn’t do it all the same Hard hearts, soft on the past Well the hurt came quick, bitterness came to last You’re the one thing that I want And the wanting’s all I’ll have Bridge Upon the mount there was a sermon And then there was a lesson learned If I can only touch in third person Is this cause to be concerned I want to know if the passing’s complete And if it was a clean divide Is this your body Is this where you’ll sleep I want to love you I want to tell you but I can’t change my mind Chorus Dead fields sown in pain I’m the last of your name I can’t do it all but I wouldn’t do it all the same Hard hearts, soft on the past Well the hurt came quick, bitterness came to last You’re the one thing that I want And the wanting’s all I’ll have Outro And the wanting’s all I’ll have And the wanting’s all I’ll have
