Oats We Sow

Someday I'll toss all your presents

And bury the letters left unsent

'Cause it's bad to do what's easy

Just 'cause it's easy

And I wanna do what pleases me but I can't

The road, she'd roll round the side of the mountain

With nowhere to go

But the heart, we know

When it's needin', it's careenin' toward bein' alone

Someday I'll find the mind to mend it

And make dry these eyes I've gotten wet

'Cause it's bad to do what's easy just 'cause it's easy

I wanna do what pleases me but I can't

The crow, he'd mow half the grass on the knoll

With nowhere to go

But the heart, we know

When it's lovin', it's leanin' toward bein' alone

The oats we sow

They could seed on forever with nowhere to grow

But the heart, we know

When it's askin' its exact twin, it will not be alone
