| I grew up like a flower in the wrong place |
| And all could see the beauty of your rose |
| But the autumn ground it’s leaves and the petals fell to pieces |
| They were shiverin' in between two sidewalk stones |
| And time has let those petals wash away |
| And now I know what you were tryin' to say |
| So I’ll let you go as long as you are leavin' |
| I’ll stay with you as long as you have lived |
| When it comes to your time, no reason and no rhyme |
| I know that I won’t find you here again |
| I know that I won’t find you her again |
| I was Mississippi Brown, helpin' til' leavin' |
| I was cryin' tears I prayd you’d never see |
| For all the seasons lost, for all the courage in your blood |
| Oh, you couldn’t see past living without me |
| Time is never often guaranteed |
| The more I carry on, the less I need |
| So I’ll let you go as long as you are leavin' |
| I’ll stay with you as long as you have lived |
| When it comes to your time, no reason and no rhyme |
| I know that I won’t find you here again |
| I know that I won’t find you here again |
| I know that I won’t find you here again |
| I know that I won’t find you here again |
| Hmm, no |
| I know that I won’t find you here again |
