๐ Lyrics
Candle wax, like a river on the concrete
Fears will fly if you let them
Patent leather dress, shoes on a baby's feet
Is he too young to tell him
People come and gather round
Only love can lift us now
We find our common thread
Over tear-stained ground
Raise our voices up, lay our flowers down
White knuckles, cotton beads on a rosary
Hoping one has an answer
You hung it on the mirror only as a novelty
But now you squeeze it 'til your hands hurt
People come and gather round
Only love can lift us now
We find our common thread
Over tear-stained ground
Raise our voices up, lay our flowers down
Oh, lay 'em down
Another bad sign, another hard time
Realize you can't ignore
This ain't the first time
This ain't the last time
Trouble's flying at your door
People come, people come
Oh, people come and gather round
Only love can lift us now
Only love can lift us now
We find our common thread
Over tear-stained ground
Raise our voices up, lay our flowers down
Raise our voices up, lay our flowers down
(Raise our voices up)
Raise our voices up, lay our flowers down
Oh, lay 'em down
Fears will fly if you let them
Patent leather dress, shoes on a baby's feet
Is he too young to tell him
People come and gather round
Only love can lift us now
We find our common thread
Over tear-stained ground
Raise our voices up, lay our flowers down
White knuckles, cotton beads on a rosary
Hoping one has an answer
You hung it on the mirror only as a novelty
But now you squeeze it 'til your hands hurt
People come and gather round
Only love can lift us now
We find our common thread
Over tear-stained ground
Raise our voices up, lay our flowers down
Oh, lay 'em down
Another bad sign, another hard time
Realize you can't ignore
This ain't the first time
This ain't the last time
Trouble's flying at your door
People come, people come
Oh, people come and gather round
Only love can lift us now
Only love can lift us now
We find our common thread
Over tear-stained ground
Raise our voices up, lay our flowers down
Raise our voices up, lay our flowers down
(Raise our voices up)
Raise our voices up, lay our flowers down
Oh, lay 'em down
