"Tomatoes" lyrics

"Tomatoes"

Babe, are you busy?
If not, then you know
I'm just down the road
I'm tendin' your garden as if it's my own
Oh, how it's grown
I pick the tomatoes you left in the yard
Wherever you are
We wish you had stayed, but we know it was hard
We miss you, but—

We're not angry at you, babe
We're angry at ourselves
I hope you found a quiet place
I hope you're doin' well

Nobody blames you, it isn't your fault
It can get dark
In this county, they raise you to bottle it all
It eats at you, but—

We're not angry at you, babe
We're angry at ourselves
I hope you found a quiet place
I hope you're doin' well

And, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
All that we've lost, all that we've—
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
These empty halls, your ghost still—

Honey, forget what the pastor said
Happens to people like you
He doesn't get what's inside your head
The dark that you've been through

And, did you find your heaven, babe?
'Cause right now, we're in hell
I hope you found a quiet place
I hope you're doin' well

And, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
All that we've lost, all that we've—
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
These empty halls, your ghost still—

Haunts us every night
How we didn't see the signs
No, you never said a word
But you were pleadin' with your eyes
Oh, honey, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Your ghost still haunts, your ghost still haunts
Your ghost still haunts
Your ghost still haunts, your ghost still—
Mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm
All that we've lost, all that we've lost
These empty halls, your ghost still—
Haunts us every night
How'd you keep it all inside?
You were puttin' on a smile
While you were fightin' for your life
Oh, honey, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Your ghost still haunts, your ghost still—

Babe, are you listenin'?
I thought you should know
We all read your note next to the tomatoes
Sprouted a rose
Mom says it's you
And you came back to see us, babe
No, we won't let you welt
This garden is your memory
I hope you're sleepin' well
