The Swell Season - I Leave Everything To You Lyrics

The Swell Season Lyrics

"I Leave Everything To You"

Everything I ever knew
I passed it onto you
The good and the bad
I hope you don't resent
Anything I represent
In your life

I am learning to abide
By the rules that now apply
It's not easy
I can see where I went wrong
I am trying to be strong
Please, forgive me

Things are never what we imagine them to be
Are they?
But they are always working out for you and me
Aren't they?

Bury me here
Bury me here
I leave everything to you
I leave everything to you
I leave everything to you
I leave everything to you

I wish I'd kept an open mind
Instead of letting my emotions
Blind me
Uncertainty is my new friend
The only one I comprehend
Come find me

In this place, this in-between
Not the real world, not a dream
A place of waiting
I am just beyond the veil
I'm a ship without a sail
Already fading

Things are never what you imagine them to be
Are they?
But they are always working out for you and me
Aren't they?

Remember me, mm
Remember me, mm
I leave everything to you
I leave everything to you
I leave everything to you
I leave everything to you
I leave everything

Everything I ever knew
Will be forgotten in a few
More moments
I'll be starting from the start
With the same ache in my heart
When this all ends

Things are never what you imagine them to be
Are they?
But they are always working out for you and me
Aren't they?
