Pinetop Seven Easy Company Lyrics

Smile pretty mouth, you're soon to see you're worse off without me
I've brought you far & shown you things, the likes you'd have not seen
I've held you up for all to watch & how pleased, we have all thought
Oh what a gift to be you, a gift you've seen through

And now it's finally said, and like sand in the bed
It keeps me awake anymore
I'm too afraid to admit you'd walk out on this
But if you're better off alone, be alone

If you walk off from me I'll see that you fall, you can't climb my walls
You'll miss the applause, the peoples' cries, the wonder in their eyes
You're so far from where you first thought to stand I've made you with these hands
Go off awake and alone, to show and be shown

And like the sahde from a tree that's just been marked to be cut down
Your gift is soon to go
But what a beauty to see, you're all I'd hoped you'd be
And I'd like to think you'd understand

Now what you couldn't leave unsaid, has grown inside my head
A tiny marching choir growing loud & louder
And as you turn away to laugh, I see our lifetime pass
And I can't say goodbye, say goodbye

I offer you my hand, dressed as an honest man
But if you're better off alone, be alone...
