"Leave The Rest To Earth" lyrics

John Butler Lyrics

"Leave The Rest To Earth"

You left, and I unravelled
But stubborn knots. They hold
And I still haven't packed your things up yet
There's so far to go

All the photographs of you in another time
All the things you made but, now, have left behind

Days go slow, and years fly past
I know we weren't built to last
We come and go, and leave the rest to Earth

And where we're going
Ain't nobody knows
But the river is flowing
To the ocean, she must go

And be renewed, and bathe a setting sun
Wild horses only go where they can run

Days go slow, and years fly past
I know we weren't built to last
We come and go, and leave the rest to earth

We come and go, and leave the rest to earth

And your wheelchair ramp still leads to my door
And I'm not gonna move it, but I don't know what for

Maybe, one day it will be mine

Maybe, one day it will be mine all in due course
Sit and watch the view with you on the back porch
He said, "Boy, they sure grow fast
Keep your eyes wide. This moment won't last."
We come and go, and leave the rest to earth
We come and go, and leave the rest to earth
We come and go, and leave the rest to earth
We come and go, and leave the rest to earth

We come and go, and leave the rest to earth
We come and go, and leave the rest to earth
We come and go, and leave the rest to earth
We come and go, and leave the rest to earth
