0:08Some things come to he who waits
0:12But all is lost if you hesitate
0:15And I was never one to wait
0:19You'll know you were loved
0:24You can hire great lawyers you can speak to your friends
0:28You can say he did this and that some things don't change
0:32Unwrap the present and burn the remains
0:36But you'll know you were loved
0:41Now you take Roscoe he ain't much
0:44People say things are ruined after his touch
0:48It's like a tar was dripping from his brush
0:52But you'll know you were loved
0:55Or Stan or Jake emerging from your past
0:59From those love affairs that didn't last
1:03But me I'll give it my last gasp
1:06And you'll know you were loved
1:13A parrot a donkey a dog a bone
1:15Some of us never had a home
1:19And if we did we left it long ago
1:24And didn't know we were loved
1:27Empty as a wooden clock
1:30Left in the woods at twelve o'clock
1:34Insides all rusted and spring is popped
1:38But you'll know you were loved
1:42Even when you sleep at night
1:46Inside your heart will cry
1:49You can never say goodbye
1:52When you know you were loved
1:58Under-achievers of the world unite
2:01You have nothing to lose except your fright
2:04And together we can perhaps past the night
2:08When you know you were loved
2:14And together we can perhaps past the night
2:17When you know you were loved
Some things come to he who waits But all is lost if you hesitate And I was never one to wait You'll know you were loved You can hire great lawyers you can speak to your friends You can say he did this and that some things don't change Unwrap the present and burn the remains But you'll know you were loved Now you take Roscoe he ain't much People say things are ruined after his touch It's like a tar was dripping from his brush But you'll know you were loved Or Stan or Jake emerging from your past From those love affairs that didn't last But me I'll give it my last gasp And you'll know you were loved A parrot a donkey a dog a bone Some of us never had a home And if we did we left it long ago And didn't know we were loved Empty as a wooden clock Left in the woods at twelve o'clock Insides all rusted and spring is popped But you'll know you were loved Even when you sleep at night Inside your heart will cry You can never say goodbye When you know you were loved Under-achievers of the world unite You have nothing to lose except your fright And together we can perhaps past the night When you know you were loved And together we can perhaps past the night When you know you were loved
