[Verse 1]

I pulled out with the mountain laurel blooming

On a dirt road that is soon to be paved

Down to the site of my original establishment

And the West End family grave

[Chorus]

'Cause one day moves into two

And I'm losing

Everything except for you

And I would sing you a song of devotion

Yeah that's what I should do

[Verse 2]

Blood runs thick and when it rains it pours down

The family tree on the fields of war

I spend my time being broken hearted and grieving bound

I haven't much need to look forward

[Chorus]

I just let one day move into two

I'm losing

Everything except for you

I would sing you a song of devotion

[Bridge]

Book of days

The way things lay

That's just space and time

Gave it up

All for a love

That won't be defined

[Verse 3]

Had enough temporary acquisition

Building fences for no gain

Taking dead trees down before the winter freeze

I said let 'em rot and fall where they may

[Chorus]

Just let one day move into two

I'm losing

Everything except for you (Ah)

I would sing you a song of devotion

That's what I should do

(I gotta let them fall where they may)

('Cause one day moves into two)

It's the book of days

(I'm losing)

It's the way things lay

(Everything except for you)

Now that's just space and time

(I, I would sing you a song)

I gave it up

(Of devotion)

All for your love

(Yeah)

That's what I should do

Yeah

That's what I should do

Yeah

That's what I should do
