The Jayhawks - Don't Let The World Get In Your Way lyrics

They say you gave him up for dead

Now there's a stranger in your head

Yellow roses at your feet

Disappear in a memory of a dream

And like a flower in the Spring

Left to the mercy of the seasons

Soon the past will catch you up

Stinging like a paper cut

There's only so much in your veins to bleed

Don't let the world get in your way

Make your mistakes

Go on your way

Yellow roses at your feet disappear into a dream

Fingers clench and smell of magazines

Kneeling at the altar in a church

Praying desperately

That someone up there is listening

Don't let the world get in your way

Make your mistakes

Go on your way
